Through its ICD, Apeejay Logistics Park is aggregating cargo and providing businesses with a connected gateway for EXIM trade. The rail-based movement is helping link the industrial cluster in Kalinganagar with the wider logistics and port network around Visakhapatnam.    The facility’s container rake operations are designed to support the movement of export and import cargo by rail, offering industries an integrated multimodal logistics option. Cargo aggregation through the ICD can help consolidate shipments and improve connectivity for businesses handling international trade.    Kalinganagar is a major industrial centre with significant steel and manufacturing activity, generating substantial demand for efficient freight transportation. Improved rail connectivity provides industries with an additional channel to move cargo while connecting the region more closely with gateways serving international markets.    The growing rail connection between Kalinganagar and Visakhapatnam also highlights the role of inland container depots in strengthening India’s multimodal logistics network. By bringing containerisation, cargo aggregation and rail transportation together, ICDs can support smoother movement of goods from industrial centres to EXIM gateways.    Apeejay Logistics Park said the development reflects its commitment to efficient multimodal logistics and to supporting India’s industrial and export ecosystem. The expanding rail-based connectivity is expected to further strengthen the integration of Kalinganagar’s industrial cargo with national and international supply chains.
