The COLCA adventure
COLCA MS grew from an encounter, segueing into this heart-warming story… Jérôme Chavant and Arnaud Grivel, respectively supply chain/logistics director for a pharmaceutical lab, and head pharmacist for a logistics company, first established a customer-supplier relationship.
Sharing the same human values as well as a forward-looking approach to their professions, they decided to start COLCA MS to meet business needs which until then had been scantily or never addressed. As such they have designed and implemented supply solutions particularly suited to pharmaceutical industrialists producing small volumes.

Why the name COLCA?
The Colca is a river in the Peruvian Andes, connecting some of the continent’s most isolated villages. It is one of the deepest valleys on earth, extremely difficult to access. In spite of this the Quechua people settled there and founded a complete civilization, especially perfecting a strong sense of serving the public good. We chose this name to denote our commitment to creating links, even in the most complex configurations. We know we can do it, that’s COLCA! Serving the general good and furthering public health, that’s COLCA!
