Enterprise must qualify theirs suppliers, logistics partners, monitor conditions, manage deviations, and maintain distribution records. 

It applies after manufacturing and covers warehousing, handling, shipping, and delivery. It requires temperature control guidelines where needed, to protect products from damage or contamination. It ensures secure storage, clear documentation, and full traceability of batches. 

GDP ensures products reach to the users in the same condition they were released from production.
