Market Overview
Emergence of India as a Manufacturing Hub and Improving Multimodal
Transportation Infrastructure Moves the Indian Logistics Market to Top
Gear
India's rising prominence in the manufacturing sector over the last few
years has given a fresh lease of life to the logistics market, and this
trend is likely to gain pace with the wave of global economic slowdown
gradually receding and India emerging as one of the earliest major
economies to recover from downturn. This fast-paced growth of the
industrial sector, coupled with the more sturdy progress of the
agricultural sector, has necessitated extensive supply chains across the
country to facilitate sourcing and distribution of production.
Distribution networks of most industries in India involve numerous
retailers across the country, and multiple levels of intermediaries.
Since companies will be hard pressed to serve such an intricate network,
logistics service providers (LSPs) will fancy their chances of finding a
firm foothold in the Indian market. Apart from the steady expansion of
operations by large domestic industrial groups, an increasing number of
global majors in industries ranging from automotive and electronics to
pharmaceuticals and cement have been targeting a spot in the highly
lucrative Indian market, says the analyst of this research. While
foreign companies need to engage logistics service providers since they
are not conversant with the culture, government policies, or
distribution landscape of the country, domestic companies are
outsourcing their logistic activities to organized third-party logistics
(3PLs) to focus on their core competencies.
Most manufacturing industries such as automotive, cement, minerals, oil
& gas, pharma, food processing, and fast moving consumer goods (FMCG)
need multimodal transportation services as they have a widespread
consumer base but limited production bases. Industries such as FMCG,
pharma, and food processing also have considerable requirements for
integrated logistics parks. Multimodal transportation solutions are
becoming possible with the development of inter-connected transportation
infrastructure facilities, especially dedicated freight corridors by the
railways and improvements in coastal shipping facilities. Similarly, the
construction of massive state-of-the-art logistics parks at key
distribution hubs are helping to meet the specialized warehousing needs
of industries. These developments are encouraging companies to outsource
logistics functions.
