Mumbai, June 13, 2016: Allcargo Logistics Ltd, India’s leading integrated logistics provider, listed on BSE & NSE and part of the global conglomerate Avvashya Group, is proud to introduce the first ever direct LCL service to Mangalore under its Non Vessel operating common carrier (NVOCC) division. Allcargo names the frequency ‘Made to Call’.

 

Vessel named Godavari departed from Colombo on 2nd June and is slated to reach Mangalore on 4th June which makes Allcargo the first mover in trade to cut down the route time to Mangalore. Usually, LCL consolidators adopt a longer route by brining the shipment to Chennai and then transferring it to the Inland Container Depots (ICD) in Bangalore from where the customer collects his cargo and carries it to Mangalore via road. The entire procedure is very time consuming. The new service of ‘Made to Call’ to Mangalore will benefit our clients and save lot of time Congratulating the organization and the industry, Chairman Mr. Shashi Kiran Shetty said, “It is as if I have realized a dream, since we have seen our organization grow, I had an ardent desire that Mangalore, my beloved hometown makes its mark on the map of Allcargo, and I am sure it is just the beginning for Mangalore.

 

Shantha Martin, CEO – Indian Sub Continent, Middle East , Africa and East Med added, “I am proud of my team, and we owe our success to each and every member of our team,….it is through our team that we are where we are and extend my appreciation to the trade for being very fast to subscribe to this service which is beneficial to them and their customers by reducing the transit time and making it cost economical.”

 

Mr. Hareram, Sr. Vice President, also said that, “Mangalore is a chief port city on the west coast of India and Indian government’s initiatives to strengthen maritime trade and develop port cities through Sagarmala Project will see huge developments in Mangalore city”.
