Allcargo Terminals Limited, part of the Allcargo Group and one of India’s largest operators of container freight stations and inland container depots, has significantly expanded its container handling capacity near Jawaharlal Nehru Port (JNP). The company has increased the annual throughput capability of its CFS from 1.9 lakh TEUs to 3.6 lakh TEUs, reinforcing its long-term focus on scale, operational efficiency, and digital-led infrastructure development.
The capacity enhancement at the JNP facility aligns with Allcargo Terminals’ three-year strategic roadmap, which prioritizes network expansion, technology adoption, and process modernization across key trade corridors. With India’s EXIM volumes continuing to rise, the upgraded facility is designed to support higher cargo flows while maintaining speed, safety, and reliability.
The expanded yard now operates with RTG-enabled, tag-less container handling systems, allowing the facility to manage larger volumes with improved precision and reduced dwell times. This upgrade positions Allcargo Terminals to better support JNP, which is targeting a container throughput of 10 million TEUs in the coming years.
Alongside yard expansion, the company has also increased warehousing capacity by around 25 percent and introduced dedicated infrastructure for handling special cargo and over-dimensional consignments. The facility’s close proximity to JNP enables quicker evacuation of containers, while enhanced safety and security systems improve overall cargo integrity.
Digitalization remains a central pillar of the expansion, with tools such as the MyCFS platform and smart yard management systems enabling real-time visibility, paperless documentation, and streamlined coordination for customers and logistics partners.
Commenting on the development, Capt. Sunny Williams, Regional Head – West at Allcargo Terminals Limited, said that JNP plays a vital role in India’s export-import ecosystem. He noted that the expanded capacity will allow the company to handle growing cargo volumes more efficiently while supporting customers with faster, technology-driven logistics solutions.
Venugopal Shetty, Facility Head – CFS JNPT, highlighted that the expansion responds directly to rising customer demand. He added that the increased yard and warehouse capacity, combined with digital planning and execution tools, will enable improved operational visibility and smoother cargo handling.
In addition to this facility, Allcargo Terminals operates another CFS near JNP through its wholly owned subsidiary, Speedy Multimodes. Overall, the company manages seven CFS and ICD locations across major ports in India, playing a key role in strengthening the country’s trade logistics infrastructure.
