Allcargo Logistics Limited has announced a major expansion of its logistics infrastructure following approval of its restructuring plan that consolidates its domestic supply chain operations, including express distribution and consultative logistics. The move is aimed at supporting the rapid growth of India’s e-commerce and quick-commerce sectors.

The company is strengthening its network with integrated capabilities such as sorting, fulfilment, consolidation, cross-docking, secondary transportation, and value-added services. Across its online retail operations, Allcargo currently handles more than 10 million shipments every month, with volumes rising by 25–30 percent during festive periods. This growth is also generating employment opportunities across logistics and delivery operations.

Allcargo’s multi-city model extends coverage across major metros as well as Tier-2 and Tier-3 markets. Technology tools, including Warehouse Management Systems, are improving inventory tracking, coordination across facilities, and overall execution. Route planning and optimisation programmes are also helping increase fleet utilisation and infrastructure efficiency—key factors in meeting the speed and reliability demands of online retail businesses.

Commenting on the development, Managing Director and CEO Ketan Kulkarni said logistics networks must evolve as consumer demand expands beyond metro cities. He added that the company’s focus remains on building integrated, technology-driven systems and ensuring consistent service quality while maintaining strong safety and compliance standards.

The company’s diverse capabilities are reflected in long-standing partnerships with global and Indian retail brands. It manages the majority of logistics operations for a European home-furnishing company across cities such as Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune, Mumbai, and locations in Gujarat. In the quick-commerce space, Allcargo also provides customised logistics planning, route optimisation, and capacity management for a major Indian supermarket chain.

To strengthen its reach, Allcargo has expanded its transshipment centres from 21 to 71 and introduced the Allcargo Extended Reach network, enabling coverage across all serviceable PIN codes in India. The company has increased mapped PIN codes from 21,000 to over 32,000 and doubled direct serviceable PIN codes to more than 10,000 through its distribution centres, improving speed, connectivity, and customer experience.

Following its restructuring, Allcargo merged its domestic supply chain business and separated its international operations under Allcargo Global. With services spanning express distribution, air freight, e-commerce logistics, and last-mile delivery, the company continues to invest in technology, infrastructure, and sustainability, with a target of achieving carbon neutrality by 2040.
