KSH Distriparks Partners with Evergreen Line to Boost Container Logistics at ICD Talegaon

KSH Distriparks

KSH Distriparks, a leading logistics service provider in container logistics, has announced a strategic partnership with Evergreen Line, one of the world’s top shipping companies. As part of this collaboration, 40-foot High Cube (HQ) containers are now available at ICD Talegaon for both import drop-offs and export pick-ups, effective immediately.

This partnership combines KSH’s expertise in first- and last-mile logistics across India's hinterland with Evergreen’s global shipping network, offering exporters a seamless, single-window solution for international cargo movement.

Initially, 45–50 High Cube containers will be maintained at the facility, with a targeted throughput of 200 containers per month. Future plans include the addition of 40FT and 20FT dry containers, expanding equipment availability for exporters in the region.

This initiative offers significant financial and logistical benefits to customers by reducing the need to reposition empty containers between Nhava Sheva and Pune. Exporters can now access empty yards locally at ICD Talegaon, resulting in savings on fuel, time, and costs. It also supports sustainability goals by lowering carbon emissions associated with long-haul container movement. KSH Distriparks already maintains similar arrangements with other leading carriers, and Evergreen’s addition further strengthens its growing portfolio of services for both imports and exports.

“Pune has emerged as a critical hub for manufacturing and exports, and efficient container logistics is essential to support the region’s growth trajectory. Our partnership with Evergreen Line is a step forward in unlocking this potential by creating a seamless logistics experience for exporters. At KSH Distriparks, we are committed to building robust inland infrastructure that not only addresses immediate operational challenges but also contributes to the larger vision of a globally competitive, sustainable, and multimodal logistics ecosystem in India” said Malcolm Dsouza, CEO, KSH Distriparks.

“Pune and its surrounding industrial belt including Chakan, Ranjangaon, and Talegaon, play a vital role in India’s export landscape, especially in sectors like automotive, engineering goods, and electronics. At Evergreen Line, we are committed to enhancing our inland connectivity and providing reliable equipment availability across major export hubs. Our partnership with KSH Distriparks at ICD Talegaon enables us to offer faster access to containers and a more streamlined export experience for our customers in the region. With an estimated 15–20% of total container traffic involving empty repositioning, this initiative also helps reduce avoidable logistics costs and emissions. As a result, it reflects our broader goal of supporting India’s growing manufacturing economy with efficient, end-to-end container logistics solutions,” said Ken Chen, Junior VP - Business Development, Evergreen Line.
