Pelican BioThermal announces the addition of the company’s new distributor partnerships expanding its reach. The additional commercial collaborations with distributors serve to further the expansion of Pelican BioThermal’s growing global footprint with coverage in Pakistan, Netherlands, Taiwan and South Africa.

Pelican BioThermal has expanded its international network with the announcement of its new distributors Popular International in Pakistan, BioThermal SA in South Africa, Uni Pharma in Taiwan and Netherlands-based Vonk B.V. 

Ed Meyer, Pelican BioThermal’s Vice President of Worldwide Sales, said: “We are pleased to announce the expansion of our worldwide distribution network. Our new distribution partners will provide customers access to our high performing products in these key regions.”

Popular International, Uni Pharma and BioThermal SA will offer Pelican BioThermal’s full range of products with Vonk B.V. providing access to military and EMS product lines. 

JJ Van Niekerk, Managing Member, BioThermal SA said: “BioThermal SA would like to thank Pelican BioThermal for giving us this opportunity to team up with them and to introduce their revolutionary product to the African market. BioThermal SA will be equipped to respond to the increasing thermal packaging requirements in South Africa and neighboring countries.
