Panaji: The Goa Air Cargo Association is called for better utilization of cargo infrastructure in Dabolim airport from local industry.
According to GACA existing infrastructure for cargo transportation at the airport is not used enough by local industry. And industry needs to step up its goods movement from the airport for investors to think about investing in Mopa airport for cargo.
Senior members of GACA said that maximization of Daboim as gateway to air cargo is necessary for the future development of Mopa as a cargo terminal. It will minimize transit period, lower cost of transportation and result in improved inventory for industry.
The Airport Authority of India (AAI) is currently expanding the International cargo complex at Dabolim by setting up of plugin facility. The facility can also handle the temperature control cargo ( dry/ wet cargo) and is scheduled for commission by the next financial year. But if local manufacturers do not support the cargo complex then the expansion process may be affected, said GACA. Office bearers added that recently TT Logistics, a Chennai based logistic company that does bonded trucking for metros was granted permission for operating in Goa with the purpose of quick connection from neighboring state airports. Bonded trucking can ease the cost for exporters and importers of Goa.
