CEVA strengthens pharmaceutical logistics offer

CEVA Logistics is strengthening its pharmaceutical logistics offer with the construction of a new warehouse in the Strasbourg-Entzheim Airport Business Park.

The new 17,000 m² facility will offer transport and logistics value-added services for the domestic and international healthcare market starting in early 2026.

CEVA Logistics announced the start of the construction on the new logistics center in Entzheim (67) which will manage tailor-made pharmaceutical operations. Strategically located in the heart of the Strasbourg Airport Business Park, the facility will benefit from close to airport facilities, cargo players, airlines, as well as customs and police services, thus offering a complete, integrated logistics solution coupled with a high level of security for customers in the pharmaceutical sector.

Planned to accommodate large volumes of healthcare products, the platform, with its height of more than 17 meters, its quays equipped to receive active air containers, will have state-of-the-art inventory management and traceability systems. In addition, it will benefit from the latest innovations in automation, ensuring smooth and secure management of activities.

Modern and designed to maximize the efficiency and responsiveness of warehousing and logistics operations, the site will offer 3 controlled temperature zones (+15°C to +25°C/+2°C to +8°/-25°C), ensuring the best storage conditions for medical products.

In line with CEVA’s strong commitment to improving the sustainability performance of its sites and local communities, the logistics center will be built to meet BREEAM[1] certifications in the “Very Good” and “Biodiversity” categories as well as featuring rooftop solar installations for renewable energy. The facility will also meet international certification standards such as TAPA FSR B, TSR 2 and ISO 13485, criteria of excellence for cargo safety and security.

With this new location in Entzheim, CEVA is further strengthening its presence in the Alsace region of France with five logistics sites, three of which are temperature-controlled. The new facility will be CEVA’s second in Entzheim, with existing facilities located in Sausheim, Mulhouse, and a site in Strasbourg that was a result of the acquisition of the pharmaceutical activities of Stef Logistique Santé in 2024. With this future hub, CEVA will have 70,000 m² of space in the region, including 32,000 m² dedicated to the healthcare sector.

Fabrice Dalla Muta, Director of Operations, Healthcare, at CEVA Logistics in France, said, “The construction of this new logistics site, designed to meet the constraints and requirements of our customers in the pharmaceutical industry, marks a new step in our strategy to develop our logistics activities for this sector. We have acquired extensive expertise in logistics operations for healthcare products and are recognized as a leading player in this field. With this new strategically located facility, we will continue to support our customers in their development and growth.”
