TCI catering to diverse industry verticals

Challenges
Expanding warehouses to Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities comes with a fair share of challenges, especially for the latter. While Tier-2 cities have started seeing a rise in demand, there is still a long way to go to be at par with urban centers. The infrastructure development in these cities is evolving at an unprecedented speed. Moreover, with various Smart City projects, finding suitable land as well as complying with the necessary local regulations, is a challenge.

Upgrading warehouse centers in these areas would require significant investment in sustainability and modernization methods. Another challenge foreseen is attracting and retaining skilled labour in these areas.
