Steel Exchange India Ltd (SEIL) has announced a strategic collaboration with Vizag Profiles Logistics (VPL) and Hind Terminals (HTPL). The aim is to explore the development of a General Cargo Terminal (GCT) and a Multi-Modal Logistics Park (MMLP) in Andhra Pradesh, near Visakhapatnam.

This collaboration seeks to improve logistics efficiency, reduce transit times, and provide scalable cargo solutions in the region. This marks SEIL's strategic move to expand its operations beyond steel manufacturing, strengthening its foothold in the infrastructure and logistics sectors.
