India’s newly opened Goa airport has rolled out a cargo management system as it looks to become a hub for cargo movement alongside Mumbai and Bengaluru in Western India.

Kale Logistics Solutions has gone live with its state-of-the-art cargo management system at GMR Goa Air Cargo (GGAC) and will now enable digital processing for all domestic cargo at Goa Airport. This includes outbound (from acceptance to loading and departure) and inbound cargo from flight arrival and flight check through to cargo delivery at the warehouse.

The GALAXY cargo management system is used by several hub airports and cargo terminals all over the world and is currently operating at more than 100 air cargo stations globally. Alongside inbound and outbound cargo, the solution also covers processing for transshipment and direct delivery.

GMR Goa International Airport Limited (GGIAL), a subsidiary of GMR Airports Limited (GAL), was inaugurated in December 2022 by Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, and the domestic air cargo operations went live from an interim facility at the airport with Kale’s solution in January.

“GMR Goa Air Cargo has set a new record, going digital from the start button,” said Vineet Malhotra, cofounder and director at Kale Logistics Solutions.

“Supported by our fully digital solution, we are confident that GGAC will exceed its cargo handling estimates, and look forward to supporting its commitment to sustainable operations.”
