The AEO status is part of the World Customs Organization's guidelines to secure and facilitate global trade through a harmonized risk management approach. AEOs, by ensuring the integrity of their operations, can thus reduce customs inspections, leading to lower transportation costs and quicker delivery times.

Good Distribution Practice (GDP) certification is a quality system for warehouse and distribution centers dedicated for medicines.

The scheme ensures that consistent quality management systems are in place throughout the entire supply chain, from the early delivery of raw materials to the manufacturing plants, to the final shipment of finished drugs to the end user. An agency that is GDP certified demonstrates that it meets the quality standards set by a recognized body, ensuring that medicines are handled safely and reliably throughout the supply chain.
