Technological advancements will help in speedier resolutions of complications arising in near future and last mile delivery. It also goes to our credit that we supported central and state governments by transporting emergency COVID-19 medical supplies, says Vineet Chadha, Managing Director, Combined Logistics Solutions.
What strategies are you devising for growth in 2022 and how do you plan to implement them?
The logistics industry has shown its significance to the Indian economy during the lockdowns. We are prepared to work round-the-clock in adverse conditions. We also have a team which has been imparted training to work in trying times in order to ensure timely last mile delivery.
What do you think has been your biggest learning during the pandemic?
Our business is to transport essential services and deliver government and medical industry needs for the health and welfare of the people. This has paid rich dividends during the consecutive lockdowns and the health crisis. All the while, we strictly adhered to strictly to COVID-19 safety protocols for the security of our staff and team members.
What is the one thing that needs to change so that the industry, as a whole, can grow?
Digital India is the answer for future problems and solutions. It will not only ensure smooth working, but will also enhance the efficiency and allow speedier resolutions to problems being faced in the physical sphere. The sooner we adopt ‘digitalism’ in our industry the better, I feel.
In your opinion, what sectors will grow the fastest and why?
Pharmaceuticals, textile, minerals, automobile accessories and industrial machines… the list is endless and are likey to grow rapidly. Exports, I believe, will grow tremendously to attain the target of US$5 trillion Indian economy (PM Gati Master Plan). To this end, logistics industry will play a crucial role. We at Combined Logistics Solutions Private Limited are optimistic and hopeful of the near future.
