Om Freight Forwarders launches commercial operations at new Raigad warehouse
Om Freight Forwarders begins commercial operations at its newly opened warehouse in Raigad, expanding its logistics footprint in the region.
Om Freight Forwarders has commenced commercial operations at its newly commissioned warehouse in Raigad, marking a notable expansion of the company's logistics infrastructure in Maharashtra. The facility is now fully operational and is expected to support freight consolidation, storage, and distribution activities for the company's growing client base.
Strategic Location and Capacity
The Raigad site has been selected to strengthen the company's presence along key freight corridors connecting western India's ports and inland markets. By positioning warehouse capacity closer to transport routes, the operator aims to shorten turnaround times and offer more flexible handling for importers and exporters operating across the region.
Service Offerings at the New Site
The new warehouse is equipped to handle a range of logistics functions, including cargo storage, sorting, and value-added services for forwarding clients. Key capabilities now available at the site include:
- Bonded and non-bonded storage for general and project cargo
- Consolidation and deconsolidation services for LCL and FCL shipments
- Last-mile coordination with road and rail transport partners
Broader Industry Context
The launch comes amid sustained investment in warehousing capacity across India, where third-party logistics providers are scaling up to meet rising demand from e-commerce, manufacturing, and global trade flows. Similar expansion activity is visible across the sector, with operators such as DHL Supply Chain pursuing new partnerships and CMA CGM announcing plans to acquire FedEx's supply chain unit in a separate billion-dollar transaction. Market sentiment toward listed logistics names has also shifted, as reflected in recent moves in names such as C.H. Robinson.
Om Freight Forwarders has not yet disclosed the exact built-up area or staffing levels at the Raigad facility, but the start of commercial operations signals a step toward broader regional coverage for the company.
