YCH Group to Invest Rs 1,000 Cr in India Logistics Parks

Mumbai, Jun 3 (PTI) Logistics firm YCH Group on Wednesday announced its plans to invest up to Rs 1,000 crore in India over the next 3-5 years, as it looks to set up major logistics parks in Chennai and Bengaluru.

Besides, it plans to develop integrated supply chain infrastructure for electronics, e-commerce and emerging semiconductor sectors in the country.

The Singapore-headquartered supply chain company, which currently manages operations across 60 locations in 40 cities, also expects its India revenue to grow nearly threefold to Rs 1,200-1,500 crore within the next three years from Rs 400 crore at present.

YCH's India operations currently support several high-growth industries through advanced warehousing, in-plant logistics, just-in-time inventory management, reverse logistics, and spare-parts fulfilment capabilities.

The planned investments will focus on developing large-scale, technology-enabled logistics parks and integrated supply chain infrastructure to meet growing demand from sectors such as electronics, e-commerce, aviation, and semiconductors.

"India is emerging as one of the most important supply chain and manufacturing destinations globally, driven by rapid industrial growth, digital commerce, and increasing demand for resilient logistics infrastructure. Our planned investments reflect YCH's long-term commitment to building future-ready, technology-driven supply chain ecosystems in India," said Jossy Sebastian, Country General Manager - India, YCH India.


The company, he said, sees significant opportunities in many sectors, such as electronics, e-commerce, aviation and semiconductors, where speed, precision and operational visibility are becoming increasingly critical.

"Through these integrated logistics parks, we aim to deliver warehousing, automation and supply chain solutions that support India's next phase of industrial and economic growth," Sebastian added.

The company said its first major expansion is planned near Sriperumbudur in the Chennai region, where YCH already operates its largest facility -- a 3.5 lakh sq ft warehouse spread across a 20-acre campus with a storage capacity of approximately 45,000 pallet positions.

The proposed Chennai logistics district park is expected to attract investments of around Rs 400-500 crore, covering land acquisition, warehouse infrastructure, automation systems, and advanced racking solutions, it added.

The company said it has approached the State Industries Promotion Corporation of Tamil Nadu (SIPCOT) for additional land allocation to support the expansion.

YCH Group also plans to develop similar integrated logistics district parks in Bengaluru and Mumbai/Bhiwandi, while also evaluating opportunities in Hyderabad and Bhubaneswar, it said, adding that these large-format logistics parks are expected to span 30-40 acres, with built-up areas ranging between 5 lakh and 10 lakh sq ft.
