Speaking at the launch ceremony, Vineet Kanaujia, Vice President, Marketing, Safexpress said that Amritsar is one of the largest and most rapidly growing cities of Punjab. It is also a very important center from the perspective of supply chain & logistics. The growth trend in Amritsar is likely to improve significantly in times to come as the government is planning numerous initiatives around the city. He said further that Punjab Government is taking various steps to provide fiscal incentives to investors in Amritsar to speed up the industrial development of the belt. Amritsar is industrially developed, but still has a lot of scope for further development, provided its logistics falls in place.

Vineet Kanaujia further highlighted that Amritsar is an important centre for textile and chemical industries and also engages in food milling and processing, silk weaving, tanning, canning, and the manufacture of machinery.

Safexpress Logistics Park at Amritsar will help in bridging the infrastructure gaps and serve the supply chain & logistics requirements of the entire Punjab region.

The essentials of our everyday existence, for instance, food, clothes, medicines, cosmetics, toiletries, footwear, electronic gadgets, etc., without which we cannot think of our survival even for a day, are the things that reach us through a very carefully planned and implemented logistics. This is the reason why logistics is considered as the backbone of our economy.
