Pharma.Aero chairman Trevor Caswell, said: “We are thrilled to have Abu Dhabi Airports join Pharma.Aero as a strategic member for the Middle East region. We look forward to a strong, active and collaborative partnership with them as we welcome them on board.”

We are confident that their participation, along with Etihad Cargo, will pave the way for the future of our association in the region.”
