DP World has launched a EXIM rail service linking Powarkheda, Madhya Pradesh to the Nhava Sheva container terminal in Mumbai. The twice-weekly service operates from DP World’s Multimodal Logistics Powarkheda (DP World Powerkheda) and is designed to speed up cargo movement, while reducing logistics costs and emissions. DP World’s Powarkheda, Logistics Composite Hub brings an ecosystem to customers, including spacious warehouses, an inland container yard, and a dedicated rail area that allows cargo to be loaded and unloaded directly from trains. It is equipped with a container repair facility to make the containers suitable for rice and garment cargo. The facility includes space for processing and manufacturing of agri products, modern cold storage with temperature-controlled modules to support sensitive cargo such as perishables, pharma, and agri-commodities. Together, these facilities at Powarkheda enable customers to carry out value-added services, storage, and rail movement to port from a single location, helping reduce delays, improve efficiency, and lower overall logistics costs through faster, coordinated operations, and reliable connectivity to gateway ports.
