Domestic and foreign institutions have shown interest in setting up parks and godowns in Kochi and its surroundings. A big expansion is going to come in the logistics sector of Kerala. The interested entities include Adani Group, Flipkart, Avicenna, TVS Industrial & Logistics Parks, US-based Panatone, and Logistics cum-Industrial Hub, among others. These logistics parks will increase the efficiency of the state's supply chain and create a lot of employment opportunities.

Kerala Industries Minister P Rajeev said that the facility of Panathoni was identified in a 100-acre plot owned by Binani Zinc in Edayar Industrial Estate. Negotiations are going on, and construction is expected to begin soon.

There are over 580 kilometers of coastline which makes sure Kerala is well-connected with the Arabian Sea. There are major ports in Kochi, Kozhikode, Kollam, and Alappuzha as part of the mainstay of the state's economy, besides the fact that the Cochin Port is claimed to be among the deepest ones in the nation.

Vizhinjam International Port is under construction in Vizhinjam in Thiruvananthapuram district with the goal of transforming Kerala into a premier international shipping terminal. This project, which is at the final stage, will significantly enhance the logistics capacity of the state.

Simultaneously, the infrastructure at Cochin Port would expedite the movement of goods. To that effect, projects are underway to establish inland water transport using the rivers and canals of Kerala, which would ease traffic congestion and lower logistics costs.

This growth in the logistics sector will bring major changes in the economy of the state. Employment opportunities will increase and the efficiency of industries will improve. In addition, Kerala will become a major player in national and international trade.
