The Air Cargo India trade show will get underway tomorrow with organisers expecting 600 conference delegates and 12,000 exhibition visitors.

The show is organised by Messe Muenchen India and will take place at the Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai between February 14 and 16.

This upcoming edition will be co-located with the CTL (cargo, transport, logistics) and BHP (break bulk, heavy lift, project forwarding) exhibition.

The transport logistic exhibition will promote best practices and knowledge sharing among key stakeholders, with a focus on key sectors like infrastructure development, food processing, and pharmaceuticals, the organisers said.

Meanwhile, the two-day conference will examine capacity expansion, sustainability initiatives, digitisation, and other technology solutions for higher volumes of trade in pharmaceuticals, perishables, e-commerce, and many others.

Bhupinder Singh, chief executive, Messe Muenchen India, said: “India’s ambitious goal of reaching $2trn in exports by 2030 hinges on building a world-class logistics network to complement existing investments in infrastructure expansions such as the launch of new airports, seaports, highways, industrial corridors, dedicated logistics parks, etc.

“Additionally, we are also witnessing widespread investments to build on India’s digital capabilities and skill development for the air cargo and transport logistics sectors.”
