OPPORTUNITIES
Terminal Development
The project has received all appropriate government sanctions and is in the advanced stage of development. Alongside, the Master Plan and Master Concession Agreement, all environmental clearances are secured with possibility of expansion in the future. The port terminals are designed, developed considering user’s requirements, plus the tariffs and operation freedom are also in line with their demand. The well utilised market is posing a positive demand outlook with respect to development in the north western region of India.
Long term port users
The Bhavnagar Port is a viable port facility for long-term port users as it lies in the hinterland of north western region. Moreover, its proximity to the Dholera Special Investment Region, connectivity to the Delhi Mumbai Business Corridor, rail and road connectivity and on-dock rail access to the Direct Freight Corridor, makes it an ideal port service for a variety of commodities.
Inland Container Depots (ICD) & Logistic Park
Bhavnagar Port’s location is suitable for ICDs that enhance cargo consolidation and distribution efficiency. This further reduces congestion and allows smoother flow of cargo to and fro from inland areas. With a custom clearance facility near the production centres, it also saves time and additional costs.
Integrated Logistic Parks in close proximity to the port further boosts development avenues with easy connectivity via sea, rail and road. More value added services such as storage and warehousing, promotes investment in infrastructure development and boosts regional economic growth. Such facilities support inventory management and reduce supply chain costs.
