Adani Ports to launch dedicated Empty Container Yard in Mundra

Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone commands a 45.5% share of India's container market as of FY26.

Within this, Mundra Port alone handles nearly 35% of the country's container trade, making it India's largest container-handling port. The volume of empty containers handled at Mundra is estimated at around 1.6 million TEUs annually, underscoring its critical role in supporting India's import export supply chains.

As part of its Ambition 2031 roadmap, APSEZ is making significant investments to expand capacity across its network, with Mundra at the forefront of this growth. The company plans to add more than 6 million TEUs of container handling capacity over the next five years.

Supporting this vision, APSEZ is launching a dedicated Empty Container Yard (ECY) with integrated warehousing at Mundra, offering end-to-end services across the empty container lifecycle, including storage, maintenance, inspection, and seamless movement to exporters and CFSs.

The dedicated Empty Container Yard at Mundra to be operated by APSEZ and / or partners (including CFS and shipping lines) will enhance efficiency across the container ecosystem by enabling faster turnaround times, reducing unnecessary container movements, and optimizing logistics costs. Strengthening trade-enabling infrastructure remains central to APSEZ's commitment towards supporting India's growth and the vision of Viksit Bharat, said Ashwani Gupta, Whole-time Director and Chief Executive Officer, APSEZ.
