After the previous provider of storage services and logistics services, Oribalt, failed to fulfil the conditions of the contract regarding the supply of vaccines, the job will be taken over by “Recipe Plus” and “Magnum Medical” Ltd., Vaccination Project Bureau told LSM March 14.

Vaccination Project Bureau said that additional carriers were attracted during the day following the failure to comply with the terms of the logistical contract and that new contracts for storage and three regional logistics services were concluded within two days. The principle of two service providers is essential for managing logistical risks, said the representatives of the bureau.

The logistics of Covid-19 vaccines are organized dividing Latvia into three regions: the territory of Rīga/Pierīga, the territory of Latvia to the east of Rīga and the territory of Latvia to the west of Rīga.

Magnum Medical will provide supply to the east of Latvia, whereas AS Recipe Plus will provide logistical services in the territory of Rīga and Pierīga, as well as in the west of Latvia. 

The cooperation shall apply until the completion of the procurement procedure and the determination of the new service provider scheduled for the coming week.
