‘Pricing pressure, lack of skilled workers, regulatory compliance hinder growth’

Sanjeev Kapoor, AVP Product – Air India says, “Lack of adequate Supply chain solutions/Management, Pricing pressure- Govt. control on drug pricing, Russia-Ukraine War, High R&D cost, Lack of skilled workforce and Regulatory Compliance are some of the existing challenges in air cargo sector.” He adds, “The road connectivity within India has improved at a high pace which has made it possible for the non metro stations to send their pharma products on Reefer trucks to metro stations across India. The cargo industry needs to have blanket approval for moving trans shipment goods via any transit point in India without any restrictions.”
