After two years of disruption, the logistics sector is riding on a growth wave as the pandemic wanes, with the giant logistics provider DTDC leading this wave with special focus on healthcare. The national player is taking the logistics game a notch higher and upgrading its infrastructure, launching several warehouses for positive growth and expansion. After the pandemic struck and post several lockdowns, the demand for doorstep delivery of medicines and vaccines has soared. In order to meet this demand and facilitate people with speedy services that reach their life-saving medical requirements, DTDC is now on a mission to reach every large city and the remotest of villages in the country.

Rolling this mission into action, DTDC has begun with Guntur district in Andhra Pradesh. They have opened a new warehouse with state-of-the-art facilities, including high-end technology. Partnering with e-commerce giants, the logistics provider is all set to provide enhanced deliveries across categories in the urban and rural segments of the state. “To further enhance our services and streamline operations to serve our customers better, we are building major logistic hubs across the country and expansion for greater business growth and delivering value to customers across the length and breadth of the country,” said Subhasish Chakraborty, Founder, Chairman and Managing Director of DTDC.

“We are happy the way people of the country have supported us in the last 32 years. We started from Karnataka but are all over India today. With the trio element of service, support and advanced infrastructure, we are sure to take care of everyone’s needs in the coming future. Moreover, we also run an organisation called Shri Subhasish Chakraborty Foundation where orphans and senior citizens are provided with shelter, education and other essential facilities, and we are confident enough to take up more such work on the social side as we multi-fold progress,” he added.

With the implementation kick-started in Guntur and Andhra Pradesh, DTDC is gearing to expand its trails with improved infrastructure and facilities in the other states too. The company caters comprehensively to retail customers, SMEs, e-retailers and large corporations using innovative shipping tools, modern API and plug-in stacks. Over the years, DTDC has adapted to the changing times with path-breaking solutions in different aspects of the supply chain industry. In 2020, the company launched the My DTDC app, offering people various subsidised services under its pandemic-related relief programme. It has also launched the ‘Smile Code’ delivery, a zero-contact pandemic-safe, real-time delivery with two-factor authentication.
