FreightSpeed delivers twice daily to pharmacies, hospitals & clinics throughout Ireland (upward of 20,000 individual consignments per day). Due to the nature of the product we deliver (medicines) all of our deliveries are time-sensitive. We deliver on time every time and have built our reputation on this merit. All our team are employed directly by FreightSpeed as we do not outsource and they all go through a rigorous training procedure consisting of GDP training, ADR, cold chain, manual handling, cytotoxic drugs awareness and extensive route training.
FreightSpeed has over thirty years experience in the transportation of pharmaceutical products throughout Ireland, delivering on behalf of the HSE, United Drug PLC, BBraun and numerous pharmaceutical companies. We operate an extensive fleet of vehicles ranging from vans to rigid and articulated trucks. A large part of our fleet is temperature-controlled and all of these vehicles are mapped and validated in accordance with HPRA standards and include live-temperature tracking technology.
FreightSpeed adhere to the highest quality assurance and compliance standards in Ireland.
We are regularly audited by the HPRA and we are fully GDP compliant & certified. We have an in-house trained Responsible Person to oversee and manage our Quality & Compliance within the pharmaceutical sector.
All our vehicles are geo-tracked using an Irish telematics system – Transpoco. The platform allows FreightSpeed to actively (and in real-time) manage the status of each fleet vehicle, ensuring all vehicles are fully compliant with road transport legislation. It also offers FreightSpeed several additional features such as generating journey and shift reports, optimising routes as well as driving style alerts such as harsh acceleration/braking and fuel consumption reports.
We utilise a system called Samsara to ensure we have live online monitoring of internal vehicle temperature, humidity, and location of all our fleet. Additionally, all vehicles are fitted with dual-facing cameras and vehicle maintenance is performed by FreightSpeed’s own in-house garage with details of each vehicle being kept on a central database.
FreightSpeed has continuously strived to be market-leaders in sustainability by providing transport solutions for our customers with a strong focus on reducing our carbon footprint. We are multi-award winners in this field, winning the Green Transport Award and the Institute of Transport and Logistics Green Matters Award.
With the recent introduction of fueling all our vehicles with HVO Biodiesel and this innovation on behalf of our customers has reduced our carbon footprint by 90%.
