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. Over the three-day event, the programme featured insightful panel discussions on future-ready supply-chain leadership, ESG integration, cybersecurity in smart logistics, and the upcoming National Warehouse Rating Framework. 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.

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.
