This initiative aims to enhance cargo movements for micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) as well as small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) operating in the Gujarat Industrial Development Corporation (GIDC) areas in South Gujarat.
Streamlined Cargo Movements for Businesses in Gujarat
The LCL consolidation services will primarily target businesses operating in various areas of South Gujarat such as Ankleshwar, Panoli, Jaghadia, Vilayat, Karjan, Dahej, Jambusar, and Surat. These regions are key industrial hubs in the state, hosting several companies from different sectors.
