Ramanathan Rajamani, CEO at Air India SATS Airport Services said, “India’s cargo infrastructure is undergoing a transformation to meet the growing demand for efficient and timely services. With higher cargo volumes, there is a shift toward multi-modal supply chain networks. The air cargo sector is expected to see increased demand for faster, reliable, and sustainable logistics solutions in the coming year. Key drivers include e-commerce growth, rising demand for advanced cold chain logistics for perishables and pharmaceuticals, and stricter carbon-neutral regulations. The industry is becoming more interconnected, transparent, and environmentally conscious. Sustainability has evolved from a regulatory requirement to a core strategy for long-term success. Companies are embracing eco-friendly practices to align with global standards and attract environmentally conscious consumers. As a regional trade hub, India plays a critical role in connecting global supply chains, reflecting a global trend toward green logistics. Enhanced digitisation, including automation and data analytics, is redefining industry standards, ensuring scalability and resilience. With these advancements, India’s air cargo sector is poised to lead in innovation, sustainability, and global trade connectivity.”
