Mahindra Logistics (MLL) has scaled up its operations, ramping up hiring and expanding capacity.
As part of the expansion, the company plans to recruit more than 14,000 employees on a seasonal basis adding to its third-party workforce.
Alongside, the company is adding solutions like pop-up facilities across eight major cities in the country aggregating to 1.1 million sq ft. These additions are for its e-commerce customers spanning across fulfilment centres, sort centres and returns processing centres, which would ensure efficient and timely delivery to customers.
Also, the company has increased its last-mile reach by opening multiple last-mile delivery centres across the country. These centres are equipped to deliver more than 1,00,000 shipments per day for small as well as large packages.
Under its electric delivery brand EDEL, Mahindra Logistics will also be procuring different types and classes of electric vehicles from OEMs as it establishes a pan-India EV presence.
EDel’s portfolio has been extended to 400 vehicles and would be operating across 12 major cities in India which include Bengaluru, New Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad Kolkata, among others. It also plans to scale it up to 500 EVs, contingent upon delivery and registration.
