‘Road transport offers flexibility, speed and builds customers’ confidence’

Nihar Parida, Air Cargo Consultant says, “The shift towards road transport for cargo in sectors like retail, FMCG, pharma, and perishables is driven by the limitations of airport storage facilities and capacity. Road transport offers flexibility and faster delivery times, addressing the urgent needs of these industries. Additionally, with rising demand for just-in-time inventory, road logistics can efficiently handle small, frequent shipments that airports may struggle with. This trend not only enhances supply chain resilience but also allows businesses to maintain product quality, especially for perishables. As infrastructure improves, road transport will likely solidify its role as a preferred option for domestic cargo.”
