Bhubaneswar (Odisha) [India], October 26: Paradeep Parivahan Limited (PPL), a BSE SME-listed integrated logistics and port services company (BSE: 544383; Symbol: PPARIVAH), has secured a landmark 10-year contract with the JSW Group to deploy and operate 100 electric trucks for bulk transportation between Nandyal, Andhra Pradesh, and Vijayanagar, Karnataka. The contract represents a significant milestone in PPLs long-term growth strategy, reinforcing its commitment to building a scalable, technology-enabled and sustainable logistics business while expanding its presence in large-scale industrial transportation. The deployment will cover an approximately 330-km one-way corridor for the transportation of clinker and slag, with an estimated cargo volume of 1.25 lakh metric tonnes per month. The electric trucks will be supplied by JSW Greentech Limited. PPLs vision: Scaling sustainable logistics for Indias industrial growth The contract is a key step in PPLs vision to emerge as a leading integrated logistics and green mobility solutions provider in India. The Company is focused on expanding its fleet, strengthening its multimodal logistics capabilities and integrating electric mobility into large-scale industrial supply chains.
