Lucknow: Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw virtually inaugurated the country's first door-to-door logistics service from the Soniq Goods Shed in the Lucknow Division.
This pioneering service, managed by the Container Corporation of India Limited (CONCOR), will allow businesses and customers to have parcels picked up directly from their homes or warehouses and safely delivered to the destination, eliminating the need to visit the station.
Boost To Railway Efficiency and Freight Movement
The initiative aims to optimize the use of railway assets, enhance freight efficiency, and strengthen last-mile connectivity by providing an integrated, cost-effective, and timely logistics solution. The project has an initial two-year approval.
