Gateway Rail Freight Ltd, a subsidiary of Gateway Distriparks Ltd, flagged off its first dedicated round trip export service between the Viramgam inland container depot (ICD) and Nhava Sheva port for India’s dairy cooperative Amul━Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF).

GatewayRail operates a fleet of 31 train sets and has an overall annual handling capacity of over 600,000 twenty-foot equivalent units(TEUs).
