Blue Dart, South Asia’s premier express air and integrated transportation and distribution company, has launched its largest low-emission integrated facility in Bijwasan, Delhi, marking a significant step towards sustainability and operational excellence. The 2.5 lakh sq. ft. hub optimises logistics and supports decarbonisation.
The facility is equipped with solar power installations and connects multiple air and ground services between North India and the rest of the country.
Strategically located along the prominent Dwarka Expressway, the facility is just 20 minutes from Indira Gandhi International Airport, making it a key logistics hub that enhances connectivity across the Northern region and beyond.
The facility has direct access to the IGI Airport, Indian Railways, metro corridors, and major national highways, seamlessly integrating with the upcoming Gati Shakti Logistics Corridor, the company said in a press release on stock exchanges.
The 2.5 lakh sq. ft. facility aligns with the PM Gati Shakti National Master Plan and emphasises Blue Dart’s commitment to India’s express logistics infrastructure.
It is designed for efficient palletised cargo handling with a capacity to process over 5.5 lakh shipments per day. Additionally, the facility integrates state-of-the-art automated systems to ensure quick and precise sorting, reducing manual handling.
This facility also features solar power installations with a 600-kW capacity, focusing on sustainability by minimising carbon emissions. The new hub strengthens Blue Dart’s extensive network, supporting over 19,000 pin codes and more than 56,000 locations nationwide.
Blue Dart has a fleet of over 250 ground network routes and eight dedicated freighters. The company offers innovative solutions like the GoGreen Plus service, providing decarbonisation options to customers and encouraging subcontractors to adopt sustainable transport solutions.
Blue Dart’s share price traded 0.99% lower at ₹6,163.24 at 2:00 PM on the NSE, opening at ₹6,290 up from its previous close of ₹6,224.60.
