We were one of the first ones who successfully implemented GST and Eway Bill process. And now we are back on the growth path. The coming year is expected to be exciting with strong growth numbers projected resultant a strong consumption. We have moved a step ahead by offering our clients integrated operations with services such as Customs clearance, empty container procurement and port pickup & delivery at the same location. Our focus on cost optimisation and improving utilisation continues. With the addition of the Krishnapatnam warehouse, our total pallet capacity has gone up to 1, 06,964 pallets, thus, further strengthening the Company’s position as a market leader in the industry.”
