Strategically positioned along the Anakapalle–Anandapuram Expressway (NH-16), the built-to-suit industrial park offers direct access to Visakhapatnam Port, enabling efficient multimodal connectivity. It has been designed to meet growing demand for Grade A logistics and industrial infrastructure in the region. The Andhra Pradesh Industrial Infrastructure Corporation Ltd (APIIC) allocated land for the project and fast-tracked necessary approvals. The park is managed by TVS Industrial and Logistics Parks (TVS ILP), one of India’s leading developers of Grade A warehousing.

During the inauguration, the Chief Minister reiterated the state’s ‘One Family, One Entrepreneur’ vision aimed at fostering widespread entrepreneurship across Andhra Pradesh.

The facility at Vizag is designed to meet the evolving needs of modern occupiers—offering scalable, sustainable, and compliant infrastructure that supports sectors such as automotive, FMCG, manufacturing and e commerce. It is well-positioned to attract both domestic and global companies seeking high quality space in the region.”
