The show was inaugurated by Shri Pankaj Kumar, Joint Secretary – Logistics, DPIIT, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India, who delivered a speech emphasizing the role of integrated logistics in India’s infrastructure growth.

A key highlight was the soft launch of the E-Handbook on Warehousing Standards, a collaborative effort between the Warehousing Association of India (WAI) and DPIIT, setting a significant precedent for industry standardization.
Throughout the show, discussions explored India’s potential as a global supply-chain partner, with a focus on the rise of quick-commerce and instant-delivery models. Prominent speakers from industry leaders such as Nestlé, IBM, Mankind Pharma, NAFED, JK Cement, Hyperpure Zomato, Infosys, Zebra Technologies, and others underscored the importance of upskilling, Industry 4.0 automation, and cybersecurity to build more resilient and efficient supply chains.
Innovation was at the forefront on the show floor, with numerous groundbreaking product launches. Toyota Material Handling introduced the Discel Focklift CEV 5 trucks, Treewalker Automation unveiled Delivery Robotics, and Swastik Industries showcased PLS Boxes. Other key highlights included ITOH Denki’s Power Moller solutions and Boxtron’s Bharat Screed B23.
