The MMLP is anticipated to support both International and domestic storage requirements along with other value-added services to customers.
It offers connectivity with international and coastal shipping routes, access to the Indian rail network through the Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC), and connects to the evolving road network in Gujarat and the northern hinterland.
The MMLP was inaugurated by Birna Osk, Chief Commercial Officer, APMT Global, Girish Aggarwal, Managing Director, Gujarat Pipavav Port Ltd (GPPL), and Rajeev Niroola, Managing Director, Contrans Logistic Private.
