Inefficient Logistics operations.
Multiple tax structures.
Inadequate logistic infrastructure.
And unorganized nature of the transport industry.
Potential for cost reduction:
In a 3PL service model, a specialized 3Pl player acts like as
an interface between a client company and its vendors and
manages the supply chain operations.

companies to reduce logistics cost.

into more strategic function that is integral to company’s
operations.

companies also began outsourcing their logistics operations
to dedicated 3PL players promoting domestic logistics
players to offer 3PL services.
Although 3PL services in India remain confined to the more
basic transportation and warehouse management, players
are expected to include value added services such as
repackaging and reverse logistics.
