1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.574
>> WHO WOULD HAVE EVER THOUGHT
THAT ULTRA-COLD FREEZERS WOULD
BE CONSIDERED GOLD? WELL, THEY
ARE IN THE CURRENT DISTRIBUTION

2
00:00:07.574 --> 00:00:16.983
PROCESS OF THE COVID-19 VACCINE
AND INDIANAPOLIS-BASED LANGHAM
LOGISTICS FINDS ITSELF ON THE
FRONTLINE IN HELPING SECURE THE

3
00:00:16.983 --> 00:00:29.229
FREEZERS FOR HEALTHCARE
FACILITIES AROUND THE STATE.
FOR MORE ON THE ROLE OF
PROCURING THE FREEZERS, PLEASED

4
00:00:29.229 --> 00:00:34.934
TO BE JOINED BY PRESIDENT AND
CEO, CATHY LANGHAM. ALWAYS GREAT
TO BE WITH YOU, THANKS FOR
JOINING US.

5
00:00:34.934 --> 00:00:42.976
>> THANKS FOR HAVING ME.
>> WANT TO GET TO THESE ULTRA
LOW TEMPERATURE FREEZERS, THAT'S
AN INTERESTING PIECE OF THIS.

6
00:00:42.976 --> 00:00:49.416
BUT I THINK IT'S ALSO
INTERESTING, LANGHAM HAS LONG
BEEN SUCH A KEY PLAYER IN THE
DISTRIBUTION AND LOGISTIC SECTOR

7
00:00:49.416 --> 00:00:58.057
IN THE STATE OF INDIANA. THE
ROLE YOU'RE PLAYING JUST IN
TERMS OF STORING AND
DISTRIBUTING PPE AND OTHER

8
00:00:58.057 --> 00:01:05.832
EQUIPMENT, THINGS WE HEAR SO
MUCH ABOUT, THERE'S GOT TO BE A
PLACE TO STORE AND DISTRIBUTE.
YOU'RE PLAYING A BIG ROLE IN

9
00:01:05.832 --> 00:01:14.007
THAT, TOO.
>> YEAH, THANKS FOR THE
QUESTION. WE'VE GOT ABOUT 9 TO
10,000 PALLETS OF PPE. SO THAT

10
00:01:14.007 --> 00:01:28.555
IS MASKS, SHIELDS, GOWNS. WE
HAVE SHIPPED OVER 5 MILLION
PIECES TO LONG-TERM HEALTHCARE
FACILITIES, TO PENITENTIARIES.

11
00:01:28.555 --> 00:01:40.266
OVER A MILLION PIECES TO SMALL
BUSINESS. A HALF A MILLION TO
SCHOOLS AROUND THE STATE. AND WE
CONTINUE TO DO THAT.

12
00:01:40.266 --> 00:01:48.775
>> IT'S AN ENORMOUS UNDERTAKING.
THAT'S WHAT YOU DO, AND WHAT YOU
DO WELL IN YOUR BUSINESS. BUT
STILL, A LOT OF MOVING PARTS.

13
00:01:48.775 --> 00:01:57.217
CAN YOU CHARACTERIZE FOR THOSE
WHO AREN'T FAMILIAR WITH THE
PROCESS HOW, FROM A LOGISTICAL
STANDPOINT HOW CHALLENGING IT

14
00:01:57.217 --> 00:02:04.190
IS.
>> YEAH, IT'S CHALLENGING. WE'VE
SHIPPED TO OVER 16 HUNDRED
DIFFERENT DESTINATIONS AROUND

15
00:02:04.190 --> 00:02:17.170
THE STATE. WE'VE HAD OVER 7,000
SHIPMENTS WITH LTL CARRIERS.
SMALL PACKAGE CARRIERS, CARGO
VANS. THE TEAM'S WORKING SEVEN

16
00:02:17.170 --> 00:02:25.512
DAYS A WEEK, CHRISTMAS,
HOLIDAYS, AND WE'RE PICKING
ORDERS AND JUST GETTING THEM OUT
AS QUICK AS WE CAN TO SERVE THE

17
00:02:25.512 --> 00:02:33.152
STATE OF INDIANA, AND THE STATE
HEALTH DEPARTMENT. AND IT'S A
LOT OF PEOPLE, AND A LOT OF
TRAINING, WE'VE BUILT PORTALS SO

18
00:02:33.152 --> 00:02:39.792
PEOPLE CAN ORDER ONLINE. SO
THERE IS A LOT GOING ON
BEHIND-THE-SCENES.
>> A LOT GOING ON NOW THAT THE

19
00:02:39.792 --> 00:02:48.167
VACCINE IS ROLLING OUT, IN
PARTICULAR, THE PFIZER VACCINE
THAT NEEDS TO BE STORED FOR
SHIPMENT IN ULTRA LOW

20
00:02:48.167 --> 00:02:55.475
TEMPERATURE FREEZERS. TALK ABOUT
THAT PROCESS. BECAUSE THERE ARE
A LOT OF THEM OUT THERE. YOU'RE
IN THE PROCESS, YOU'RE PROCURING

21
00:02:55.475 --> 00:03:00.313
SOME OF THE FREEZERS AND
CONNECTING FOLKS WITH THEM. TALK
ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON IN THAT
REGARD.

22
00:03:00.313 --> 00:03:12.325
>> YEAH. THERE'S A LOT GOING ON.
THESE ULTRA LOW TEMP FREEZERS
ARE PRETTY HIGH TECH. THEY GO TO
NEGATIVE 70, AND NEGATIVE 80

23
00:03:12.325 --> 00:03:22.702
DEGREES CENTIGRADE, WHICH IS
WHAT WE NEED TO DO. THE TEMP WE
NEED FOR THE EFFICACY OF THE
PFIZER DRUGS. RIGHT NOW, THE CDC

24
00:03:22.702 --> 00:03:29.676
IS CONTROLLING ALL THE
TRANSPORTATION AND DISTRIBUTION,
AND SENDING THESE TO HOSPITALS
DIRECT TO THE FRONT LINE AROUND

25
00:03:29.676 --> 00:03:39.819
THE STATE OF INDIANA, AND AROUND
THE COUNTRY. A LOT OF THESE
LOCATIONS DON'T HAVE THESE ULT,
OR ULTRA LOW TEMP FREEZERS. SO

26
00:03:39.819 --> 00:03:52.966
PARTNERING WITH GREAT COMPANIES
LIKE DEAN, LIKE HELLMER. WE'RE
PROCURED THEM, PLACING,
VALIDATING, AND MAINTAINING THEM

27
00:03:52.966 --> 00:04:00.473
AROUND THE STATE OF INDIANA. AND
WE'LL CONTINUE TO DO THAT,
WORKING WITH THE HOSPITALS, AS
WELL AS LABS AND HEALTHCARE

28
00:04:00.473 --> 00:04:04.777
FACILITIES.
>> YOU MENTIONED HEALTHCARE
FACILITIES, BUT ALSO A NUMBER OF
COMPANIES YOU MENTIONED, IT

29
00:04:04.777 --> 00:04:12.919
STRIKES ME THAT THIS EFFORT, IF
YOU WILL, IS ANOTHER GREAT
EXAMPLE OF INDIANA COMPANIES IN
THE BUSINESS SECTOR, PRIVATE

30
00:04:12.919 --> 00:04:20.059
SECTOR COMMUNITY, PULLING
TOGETHER AND REALLY GETTING
BEHIND THIS EFFORT.
>> I THINK IT IS. IT'S BEEN

31
00:04:20.059 --> 00:04:33.973
EXCITING. IT'S ENERGIZING FOR
ALL OF OUR EMPLOYEES. AND
WORKING WITH THE BIG GUYS, TOO.
WITH THE LILLYS, ROCHE AND

32
00:04:33.973 --> 00:04:40.146
CUMMINS, COMPANIES PULLING
TOGETHER TO HELP HOOSIERS, IT'S
WORKED REALLY WELL, AND IT'S
EXCITING FOR ALL OF US.

33
00:04:40.146 --> 00:04:49.489
>> INDIANA, OF COURSE, THE
CROSSROADS OF AMERICA, GREAT
DISTRIBUTION AND LOGISTICS
SECTOR. AND WITH THINGS LIKE THE

34
00:04:49.489 --> 00:04:57.563
MASSIVE FEDEX HUB THAT IS HERE,
A NUMBER OF OTHER ASSETS, AS
WELL. INDIANA, BECAUSE OF ITS
GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION, ITS

35
00:04:57.563 --> 00:05:06.339
EXPERTISE IN WHAT IS HERE, MAYBE
PLAYING A BIGGER ROLE IN THIS
VACCINE ROLLOUT THAN WOULD
OTHERWISE BE NOTED.

36
00:05:06.339 --> 00:05:16.949
>> I THINK WE DO. AND LIKE YOU
SAID, FEDEX, THEIR SECOND
LARGEST HUB IS HERE. THEY AND
UPS ARE DOING A LOT OF THE

37
00:05:16.949 --> 00:05:29.128
DISTRIBUTION. I THINK AS THE
VACCINES ARE NORMALIZED ACROSS
THE STATE, AND SIX MONTHS FROM
NOW, THE CDC WILL OPEN IT UP TO

38
00:05:29.128 --> 00:05:34.901
USE LANGHAM AND OTHER
TRANSPORTATION COMPANIES TO DO
THE ONGOING DELIVERY OF THE
VACCINES, AND WE'RE LOCATED IN

39
00:05:34.901 --> 00:05:43.609
THE CROSSROADS OF AMERICA, SO
IT'S PERFECT FOR INDIANA.
>> CERTAINLY A LOT GOING ON,
LANGHAM LOGISTICS PRESIDENT AND

40
00:05:43.609 --> 00:05:46.679
CEO, CATHY LANGHAM THANKS FOR
JOINING US, THANKS FOR ALL YOU
