Cook Medical has announced a new distribution partnership with Movianto UK, a leading European supply chain solutions partner, in the United Kingdom. Starting October 2024, orders from customers in the UK will be shipped from Movianto UK, enhancing Cook Medical’s commitment to better serving customers and delivering life-saving products more efficiently.
One of the key benefits of this partnership is the quicker delivery of Cook products to customers in the UK. Products will now be shipped from within the country, creating a more streamlined and smooth process while reducing the risk of delays.
Additionally, by shipping products by road rather than air, Cook Medical aims to reduce the carbon footprint associated with transportation, contributing to a more sustainable future.
Partnerships like this are just one of the many ways Cook is changing to better serve its customers and patients. As Cook continues to change in line with its vision, an integral part of the plan is fostering partnerships to enhance product offerings.
Speaking about the new partnership, Eamonn Barry, director of Customer Support and Distribution, EMEA at Cook Medical, said, “We are thrilled to collaborate with Movianto UK to expedite the delivery of our products to customers and, ultimately, patients across the UK. Our experience working with Movianto UK has been hugely positive so far. Their values and ethos closely align with those of Cook Medical. We look forward to continuing this successful partnership.”
David Evans, managing director of Movianto UK, added, “Thanks to our specialisation in logistics for the pharmaceutical and healthcare industry, we were able to quickly implement Cook Medical’s wishes. Now, we are delighted that our warehousing and dispatch service provides the basis for next-day delivery to Cook customers nationwide. This is faster and more environmentally friendly than the previous distribution model.”
