“In the budget, the fund allocation for the infrastructure development of transport sector, including roads and railways, is definitely a positive push for the logistics industry and will have a long-term impact on last-mile deliveries. With Covid-19 vaccine distribution, a robust national supply chain is of paramount importance in 2021. The proposed measures by the government will ensure ease of doing business for leading companies as well as Indian logistics startups and also, support in boosting the overall economy. Further, the step towards making India a strong textile hub through development of integrated mega textile parks will improve manufacturing and aid export competitiveness,” says, Vishal Sharma, CEO, Cluster India and Indian Sub-Continent, DB Schenker.
