A ‘Navratna’ Public Sector Undertaking under the Indian Ministry of Railways, the Container Corporation of India Ltd. or CONCOR, as we know it, was incorporated in March 1988 under the Companies Act. It started operating in November 1989, taking over the existing network of seven Inland Container Depots (ICDs) from the Indian Railways to profitably satisfy the customer’s needs for high- quality cost-effective logistics services.

A SUCCESSFUL VENTURE

The company began on a humble note and today, it is an acknowledged market leader with the largest network of 79 ICDs/ CFSs in India extending scheduled and on-demand rapid rail and road services between the hinterland and ports, as also between major metros.

However, CONCOR does not just limit to that. In addition to delivering inland transport by rail for containers, it has also stretched to cover management of ports air cargo complexes, and establishing cold-chains. CONCOR has and will continue to play the role of endorsing containerization of India by virtue of its modern rail wagon fleet, customer-friendly commercial practices, and widely used Information Technology. It operates three core businesses: cargo carrier & terminal operator, warehouse operator & MMLP operation.

During these hard-hitting times of the Covid19 pandemic, when practically everything – from health to commerce – came to a halt, CONCOR adhered to its people’s needs and did not stop working for a single day. It ensured uninterrupted Supply Chain Logistics for all essential commodities.

The Chairman and Managing Director of CONCOR, Mr. V. Kalyana Rama states, “I am happy to share that the relentless efforts by your Company and its employees are reflecting a healthy comeback to trend.
