The Visakhapatnam facility
will handle warehousing and distribution of
Yokohama’s off-highway tyre
(OHT) brands as well as passenger car tyres.
The hub is designed for large-volume storage and dispatch operations,
including full truckload and part truckload movements. It will support the distribution
of tyres to domestic markets while also facilitating export shipments. The Mother Hub is located to support ATC
Tires AP’s manufacturing operations in the Atchutapuram industrial area near
Visakhapatnam. Its proximity to the
manufacturing facility is expected to reduce transit requirements between
production and storage. The location also provides access to Visakhapatnam’s
port infrastructure, supporting the movement of off-highway tyres to
international markets. Driver
Logistics operates the facility using integrated Transport Management Systems
(TMS) and SAP/ERP connectivity. The
digital systems enable real-time inventory visibility and support coordination
across storage, dispatch and transportation operations. The Visakhapatnam Mother Hub forms part of
Driver Logistics’ broader strategy to develop connected logistics
infrastructure across India. The
facility adds warehousing capacity to Andhra Pradesh’s manufacturing and export
ecosystem, linking tyre production, storage, road transportation and port
connectivity through a single logistics operation.
