‘Warehouses in close proximity of airports may reduce congestion, enhance cargo movements’

Sunil Kohli, Managing Director, Rahat Cargo said, “It is abundantly clear that location of the warehouses in the close proximity of the respective airports can go a long way in eliminating the congestion elements which keep frequently emerging due to the bunching of several flights during a particular time slot. Although many such warehouses have lately been built at the metro airports by the freight forwarders yet a need is further felt essential to have more of such warehouses established at strategic locations near the airports which may be conveniently utilised by the exporters thereby having an optimal usage of the manpower apart from saving time. It’s also advisable to have such ideally located warehouses close to all the non-metro airports which handle considerable cargo movements.”
