‘MMLPs, transhipment hubs, DFCs will boost logistics growth’

KK Agarwal, Chairman and Managing Director, CJ Darcl Logistics said, “India’s transportation and Logistics sector acts as the backbone to support the fast-paced growth of the country in becoming a $ 5 Trillion economy by 2027. With the framework of National Logistics Policy, GatiShakti, National Rail Plan, Bharatmala and other new initiatives implemented by the government, the industry would continue to move on the path to become technologically smarter and efficient. In the coming year, we anticipate enhanced collaboration between human and technology to provide solutions that will cater to the rising consumer demands for faster and reliable deliveries. Along with this, the industry will witness setting up of more hyperlocal and transhipment hubs to fulfil this surge in requirement. The government’s initiatives towards establishing new multimodal parks, developing dedicated freight corridors and revamping the shipping infrastructure would further support the growth of the industry. Adopting eco-friendly solutions would be the cornerstone for a scalable and sustainable growth of the sector. Another critical aspect that requires industry’s focus is reducing the number of road accidents by integrating technology and providing road safety trainings to the drivers. At CJ Darcl, we are ready to support & leverage these developments to provide innovative solutions that meet the needs of our customers. With over four decades of experience and expertise in the logistics industry, we remain committed to innovation and excellence. As we move towards 2025 and beyond, our goal is to realize India’s vision of a sustainably and technologically advanced country. Together, we aim to strengthen India’s position as a global logistics hub and contribute to the industry’s development at home and globally.”
