Welcome to GLA! Leading the global logistics alliance.

India International Cargo Show Concludes Successfully

Time:2025-12-15 Publisher:Kevin Num:115

From December 10th to 12th, 2025, one of South Asia’s most influential annual logistics events—the 2025 India International Cargo Show (IICS)—successfully concluded. As an international logistics ecosystem network connecting over 170 countries and gathering more than 7,000 high-quality enterprises, GLA Global Logistics Alliance made a remarkable impact at the exhibition with its "Global Co-exhibition Group," composed of four outstanding global logistics companies, sparking a wave of collaboration on the show floor.

During the three-day event, which brought together over 200 logistics industry chain enterprises and more than 20,000 global logistics professionals, the GLA Global Co-Exhibition Group adopted an open strategy of "win-win cooperation." 

At the intersection of the "Belt and Road" initiative and "Make in India" strategy, GLA has charted a new course for the rise of global logistics enterprises in South Asia. It remains committed to helping logistics and supply chain companies worldwide break down geographical barriers and connect with global business opportunities.

From a Nine-Hour Drive to 137 Leads: GLA Exceeds Expectations at IICS

The India International Cargo Show concluded with both on-site engagement and business outcomes surpassing expectations. The exhibition attracted thousands of professional visitors, with 137 high-quality logistics companies expressing clear intentions to join GLA, reflecting strong international recognition of GLA’s platform resources and service model. 

Notably, the event drew extensive participation from India and neighboring regions, including logistics representatives from relatively remote areas who drove nine hours specifically to attend. The lively on-site discussions underscored the local industry’s urgent demand for international cooperation and access to global networks. This exhibition not only solidified GLA’s brand influence but also laid a solid client foundation for deeper regional market penetration.

Insights gained from this trip to India have further enriched GLA’s understanding of the local market. Indian logistics companies demonstrated significant sincerity and a proactive mindset, engaging deeply on collaboration details and exploring long-term win-win models. This indicates that the logistics markets in India and South Asia are entering a new phase of pursuing specialization and internationalization.

It is noteworthy that Mumbai's new airport is scheduled to commence operations by the end of December, which will effectively alleviate the operational pressure on the existing T2 terminal. Data indicates that Mumbai Airport is already operating at high capacity—on November 21, 2025, it set a new global record for the highest number of takeoffs and landings in a single day at a single-runway airport, handling 1,036 flights and over 170,000 passengers.

This highlights the region's economic vitality and strong aviation demand. The completion of the new airport marks a critical step in infrastructure enhancement and will further stimulate the economy and drive employment. As a highly inclusive and diverse city, Mumbai continues to provide development opportunities and living space for people from all walks of life.

Through its participation, GLA successfully established an efficient and direct platform of trust. Beyond acquiring numerous potential clients, GLA gained profound insights into the pulse of the regional market, accumulating valuable experience to help more international logistics companies build sustainable partnerships with Indian and global counterparts in the future.

Global Resource Integration: Unleashing Alliance Synergy Where 1+1＞10

IICS has proven to be not just a showcase for logistics services but also an authoritative platform for in-depth dialogue among global logistics professionals, policymakers, and industry leaders. 

Departing from traditional solo exhibition models, GLA presented itself as a "brand community" at Booth B09 in the core exhibition area of IICS. This approach reflects GLA’s commitment to collaborative success, amplifying the strengths of member companies to form a powerful collective brand presence. By leveraging the stage of an international mega-event, GLA enables member brands to achieve elevated value and visibility.

GLA extends sincere gratitude to the following four outstanding global logistics companies for their deep involvement and strong support in this joint exhibition:

• Guangzhou SUNWAY Cargo Company CO., LTD

• Clarion International Freight & Logistics SDN BHD

• Navicon Group Of Companies

• VHL LOGISTICS SDN BHD

These exceptional companies from China, Malaysia, and beyond are more than just names on GLA’s booth—they represent the epitome of logistics enterprises going global. In an international arena dominated by giants, the era of going it alone is fading. Only by uniting into chains and pooling strengths can regional, specialized logistics players gain global visibility and market trust.

What GLA has built is not merely a co-exhibition stand but a replicable, scalable, and human-centric model for global expansion. Here, every member company is both a contributor and a beneficiary, and every handshake and collaboration helps reshape the underlying logic of the global logistics ecosystem.

Deep Roots in South Asia: Decoding Opportunities in a Trillion-Dollar Market

GLA’s presence at IICS 2025 was more than just an exhibition—it was an in-depth integration and release of value. At the event, GLA keenly identified three transformative signals in India’s logistics industry:

• E-commerce fulfillment time requirements have increased by 300%.

• Cold chain logistics infrastructure faces a gap of USD 47 billion.

• Demand for digital customs clearance platforms is surging.

These "pain points" represent opportunities for mature global logistics service providers. GLA’s role is to build an efficient, transparent, and trustworthy bridge, ensuring that supply and demand sides no longer look at each other across oceans but instead "sail forward together."

This goes beyond business matching—it is a cross-cultural symphony of supply chain collaboration. India’s booming consumer market awaits exploration. As global digital expertise integrates with South Asia’s local ecosystem, GLA’s contributions transcend individual orders or agency partnerships. We are participating in building a new paradigm of globalization: not one-way export, but two-way empowerment; not a zero-sum game, but mutual growth and prosperity. On the two-way logistics corridor from Mumbai to the world, what flows is not just goods, but trust, standards, and the future.

Beyond the Exhibition: Building a Sustainable Growth Ecosystem

As the tides of global supply chain restructuring surge, GLA demonstrates through action that the era of solitary competition is over. Only through strategic alliances and resource synergy can companies anchor growth amidst uncertainty.

The fruitful outcomes of the India International Cargo Show stand as the best testament to GLA’s identity as a "Global Connector." Next stop: the 14th GLA Global Logistics (Shenzhen) Conference & GLA 10th Anniversary Celebration. We will bring cutting-edge global logistics technologies and diverse innovative case studies to share with over 2,000 logistics partners from 130+ countries, co-creating a more efficient and inclusive global logistics landscape. We cordially invite you to join us in reflecting on a decade of partnership and collaboration with GLA, and together, write an even more brilliant future for the global logistics industry.
