Adani Agri Logistics Ltd (AALL), a wholly owned unit of Adani Logistics Ltd, has won a deal from the Food Corporation of India (FCI) to build silo complexes across the country.
Adani Agri Logistics will develop and operate modern silo complexes at four locations - Kanpur, Gonda and Sandila in Uttar Pradesh and Katihar in Bihar – as part of a government plan to modernize India’s storage infrastructure, creating a total silo storage capacity of 3.5 lakh metric tonnes.
Silo complexes, which are mechanized, and automated units equipped with temperature and humidity controls, are built to handle, store, and preserve food grains. The handling process, from procurement to transportation, is in bulk form catered through containerized movement.
Adani Logistics Ltd is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd (APSEZ), India’s biggest private port operator.
The silo project, won through a competitive bidding process, will benefit the farmers of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar besides supporting general consumers and PDS (Public Distribution System) beneficiaries, Adani Agri Logistics said in a statement.
