NECC proposes to expand across 50 cities

The company is gearing up its overall capabilities with a special focus towards warehousing. Given the opportunity, NECC expects to unfold post the GST. It is also upgrading and expanding its service.

North Eastern Carrying Corporation (NECC) is looking to expand its existing 1.5 mn sqft warehousing capabilities over the next two years across 50 major Indian cities throughout India, with asset light approach. The warehousing and distribution segment is to be headed by Ramesh Krishnan, an industry veteran.

Utkarsh Jain, Whole time Director, NECC, said, “Given the imminent implementation of GST, we see a lot of opportunity in the logistics segment with an increasing demand for warehousing. Larger companies, both domestic and MNC’s would like to partner with an established and reliable player like us to cater to their requirement from transportation to warehousing and distribution across the country in the most cost effective and efficient manner. We are confident of tapping this potential and towards this propose to make necessary investments to further upgrade and expand our servicing capabilities.” “Efficient supply chain management is a critical component of all businesses and within this, warehousing plays a key role. NECC has performed consistently over several years and I am delighted to be part of the team that takes it to its next level of growth. An enabling macro environment offers significant opportunity for a logistics company that has both scale and efficiency and our focus is on both these attributes,” added Krishnan.
