Allcargo Gati Limited (formerly Gati), a leading express distribution and supply chain management company in India, is enhancing its substantial role in Agra’s footwear industry. With a focus on footwear for both men and women, Allcargo Gati has been integral to this thriving sector for the past 20 years, serving 350 MSMEs. The company has witnessed a notable increase in sales, particularly during festivals such as Onam, Muharram, and Eid.
Operating across several key clusters in the region, including Hing Ki Mandi—which represents 50% of the MSME cluster members with around 550 participants—Allcargo Gati also supports other clusters such as Shahganj, Tajganj, and Industrial, each with about 150 members. With a significant consumer footwear market in the south, Allcargo Gati has established a strong presence across India, ensuring Agra’s footwear reaches markets nationwide.
The company offers reliable and efficient delivery solutions to these clusters and has incorporated advanced automation technologies in its warehouses, significantly improving operational efficiency, accuracy, and cost optimization.
Mr. Uday Sharma, Chief Commercial Officer of Allcargo Gati Limited, commented, “Agra’s traditional economy has long been supported by the leather and marble handicraft industries. Our enduring presence in Agra’s footwear market highlights our commitment to local MSMEs. We are excited to expand our operations with new kiosks to enhance our service and seize emerging opportunities. We believe our improved offerings will further impact this vibrant industry.”
Since the introduction of the One District One Product (ODOP) initiative in 2018, the Uttar Pradesh government has played a crucial role in supporting Agra’s footwear sector. The ODOP scheme provides financing to industrial units for modernization and reorganization, positioning Agra as a global footwear hub. As Agra’s footwear industry moves towards global recognition, Allcargo Gati continues to lead the way with consistent and reliable service.
