- In 1999, Unilog became the first pure 3PL service provider in the pharmaceutical market.
- Since 2003, Unilog has been a representative of the multinational company UPS Supply Chain Solutions in Greece. It is a completely independent specialized Business Unit, Spare Parts Logistics, which currently serves the companies DELL, Juniper, Netapp, Riverbed with direct support on a 24-hour basis, 7 days a week. Through this collaboration, all distribution channels are served, companies (B2B) and individuals (B2C).
- In 2005, it becomes the first company to be licensed by the National Medicines Organization (EOF) as a 3PL service company for pharmaceutical preparations.
- In 2006, Unilog established for the first time in Greece the distribution of pharmaceutical preparations with temperature-controlled cars, GDP certified, developing a specialized transport network, which was expanded nationwide, with the result that today it covers 98% of the Greek territory.
- In the same year, the construction of the most modern storage center in Greece is completed, in Markopoulo, Attica, very close to the Athens International Airport as well as the main connecting Road Axis of Greece.
- In 2012, in the context of providing integrated solutions to the pharmaceutical industry, Unilog creates a Clinical Studies department and is the only 3PL company in Greece that provides full management and repackaging support services in this sensitive sector.
- In the same year the Home Patient Pharmaceutical Treatment service is operational and Unilog is awarded for its “Outstanding Performance” regarding this service by the “Transport & Logistic Awards” in 2015.
- Unilog, leading the developments, developed high-quality production services Serialization, Aggregation, Tamper Evidence, Emvo Connection, since the beginning of the mandatory compliance with the regulation (EU) 2016/161 for the pharmaceutical market in early 2019. Unilog, in this way, helped, especially, the small Greek pharmaceutical companies - which could not cope with the exorbitant costs - to continue their exports.
- The result of all this was that Unilog was selected in 2019 as "One to Watch" in Europe in the list of business excellence published by the European Business Awards, one of the largest and longest running business competitions in the world. Unilog was selected as it demonstrates outstanding achievements and reflects the program's core values of innovation, success and business ethics.
- In 2020, it takes the lead by assigning the Head of the Quality Assurance department to the Ministry of Health to the three-member committee for the coordination and organization of entire supply chain of all the vaccines against Covid-19 from receiving them from the pharmaceutical companies to the vaccination by the scientific staff to the citizens.
- In 2021, it undertakes, also free of charge, the storage and nationwide distribution of the state's Self-Diagnostic Tests for COVID-19, signing a Memorandum of Cooperation with the Ministry of Health and once again actively contributing to the support of Public Health.
