Nikhil Agarwal, President, CJ Darcl Logistics, said, “This year witnessed remarkable resilience from the logistics sector considering the geopolitical complexities, government’s focus on enhanced manufacturing, customers affinity toward environmentally friendly options and more traceable deliveries. As we head into 2026, we anticipate seeing more tangible growth in terms of larger adoption of technology, transition toward cleaner fuel, and integration of AI into supply chain. While 2025 was about conceptualising AI’s use, we see its role evolving to drive impactful business decisions in the coming year. With the government’s policies and initiatives such as the development of MMLPs, DFCs, construction of new highways and data from PM GatiShakti being accessible to private logistics players, we see the ecosystem coming together to realise the vision of making India a global manufacturing and trade hub with improved efficiency. At CJ Darcl, we are committed to working alongside the industry stakeholders to elevate India’s global positioning as a logistics powerhouse.”
