Kuehne+Nagel, a global logistics provider, has opened a new, built-to-suit 3,500 sqm Container Freight Station (CFS) in Mumbai. This facility reinforces its Sea Logistics capabilities in India and supports the country’s expanding trade ecosystem.

Located near the Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA), India’s largest seaport, the facility provides direct access to a key maritime gateway that handles a significant share of the country’s containerised trade.

The built-to-suit facility is designed for scalable operations, enabling efficient cargo handling and value-added logistics services. It follows strict safety and security protocols, with end-to-end surveillance, and meets global standards, including CTPAT (Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism), AEO (Authorised Economic Operator), and ISO (International Organization for Standardisation). Sustainability is integral to the design, featuring electric material-handling equipment and solar-powered lighting to reduce environmental impact.

Anish Kumar Jha, MD, Kuehne+Nagel India, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives says, “Our new CFS enables faster, more connected operations. It helps customers move shipments efficiently and reliably today; while supporting their logistics needs as they evolve in the future.”
