When it comes to logistics services like LCL, FCL, Container Freight Station (CFS) and Inland Container Depot (ICD) operations, Project Logistics, Contract Logistics, etc. safety of their has been and continues to be one of the key concerns for businesses. It\u2019s no wonder then that so many of them choose to rely on India\u2019s largest integrated logistics services provider operating the country\u2019s widest CFS network.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n

Business landscapes are evolving, global supply chains are getting disrupted and restructured, and the logistics ecosystem is getting streamlined and digitalised. However, irrespective of this transition journey, safety reigns supreme as the one constant that is critical and non-negotiable.<\/p>\r\n

\u201cAs the world grapples with the COVID-19 pandemic, concerns about safety have come to the fore even more and the logistics industry is no exception. Businesses seek reassurance of cargo shipment transportation, storage and delivery without any breakage, damage or regulatory breach while still maintaining all COVID-19 care and precautionary measures. For us at Allcargo, being vigilant about safety is second nature and this near-obsession drives us to ensure safety and security of customers\u2019 cargo shipments across all CFS-ICD locations and facilities\u201d, says Prakash Tulsiani, CEO \u2013 CFS-ICD, Allcargo Logistics.<\/p>\r\n

World-class CFS services with the promise of safety<\/p>\r\n

Offering an extensive coverage across the country, Allcargo Logistics operates India\u2019s widest CFS-ICD network that spans Mumbai, Mundra, Kolkata, Chennai and Dadri.<\/p>\r\n

Connectivity within India and across countries in and around the Indian subcontinent, facilities that match international standards, capabilities in handling various types of cargo including Dangerous Goods (DG) cargo and hazardous material as well as Over-Dimensional Cargo (ODC) and excellent customer service from expert professionals are the hallmarks of Allcargo\u2019s CFS services.<\/p>\r\n

A digital control tower helps keep track of activities at the CFS, and web and mobile technologies make real-time, accurate track and trace of containers possible.<\/p>\r\n
