Asia Pacific Healthcare Cold Chain Logistics Market to Grow at a CAGR of 12% During 2013-2017

New Delhi, India, April 12, 2013 --(PR.com)-- IMARC Group, one of the world’s leading research and advisory firms, finds that the total market for healthcare cold chain logistic services in the Asia Pacific region is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12% during 2013-2017. Findings from its latest report entitled “Global Healthcare Cold Chain Logistics Market Report & Forecast (2012-2017)” suggests that excluding some of the developed economies such as Japan, Australia and Singapore, most of the countries in the region still have an under developed cold chain infrastructure leaving a lot of room for future growth. According to an analyst at IMARC Group, “The sales of biopharmaceuticals and vaccines in most of these markets are expected to expand rapidly during the forecast period. A number of Asia Pacific destinations such as India, China, Singapore and South Korea etc. are also emerging as major destinations for outsourcing clinical trials, drug manufacturing and pathology testing. Driven by these factors, we expect the cold chain logistics market in the Asia Pacific region to account for nearly 30% of the global market by 2017.”
