Designed to global standards, the park will offer over 3.6 million square feet of industrial and warehousing facilities catering to the e-commerce, third-party logistics (3PL), fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), and manufacturing sectors.

NaBFID’s 22-year term loan underlines its commitment to infrastructure-backed growth. “While we have financed other warehousing projects, this one stands out as it is located within a SEZ and is being built to international benchmarks,” said Samuel Joseph, Deputy Managing Director, NaBFID.

Welspun One highlighted that the funding ensures timely project execution and boosts their mission of delivering scalable, high-quality infrastructure. “This park will set new benchmarks in efficiency and scalability. With NaBFID’s support, we are positioned to accelerate execution and create long-term value for our stakeholders,” said Anshul Singhal, Co-Founder and Managing Director, Welspun One.

The project is expected to significantly contribute to India’s growing demand for modern logistics infrastructure.
