    Integrated third-party logistics (3PL) service provider, Mahindra Logistics Ltd. (MLL), which forayed into end-to-end services for its B2C grocery business last year on Thursday announced the launch of its latest fulfilment centre, its eleventh in the country and third in the city of Hyderabad. The new fulfilment centre will specifically enable quick commerce in the grocery segment with technology at its backbone in driving efficiency.

    The company has been able to establish its operational capability across India with end-to-end services of fulfilment centres, milk-run transportation, micro-fulfilment centres (dark stores) and last mile delivery. The network, which the company built for this segment, is equipped to fulfil large volumes. These fulfilment centres are spread across 5 cities (Bangalore, Vizag, Vijayawada, Hyderabad, and Kolkata) and are currently serving more than 6 lakh units and 15000+ stores per day.

    Rampraveen Swaminathan, Managing Director and CEO of Mahindra Logistics said in a statement, “With changing consumer demand patterns, we are expanding our network to continually enhance our reach. Essential service is a rapidly growing category and we are looking at bringing our facilities to cities where these services are not accessible. We believe in delivering a consistent customer experience in the B2C space through customized, technology-driven solutions. These operations also synergise last mile operations through “Whizzard”, our last-mile logistics brand that we acquired in April this year."

    MLL, through these B2C fulfilment centres, is creating employment for 1500+ people. It has also been an inclusive employer. The company has actively employed differently abled persons and employees from the LGBTQ+ community at its warehouses across the country. Similarly, MLL is bridging the gender diversity gap by hiring more women from various backgrounds and experiences.

    The company serves over 400+ corporate customers across various industries like automobile, engineering, consumer goods and e-commerce.
