Yes, there is a national motor carrier in India

July 1, 2009
Supply Chain Quarterly Staff
No Comments

The following statement, which appeared in the article "Now's the time for an India strategy" (Quarter 1, 2009), is false: "Hiring a motor carrier means working with a small trucking company, as the country has no large, national transportation companies and only a handful of medium-sized carriers."

My company, Transport Corporation of India (TCI), is the largest national transportation/multimodal logistics company in India. We have 1,200 company-owned offices and provide services in every district of India. A district is an administrative division of a state. India is divided into 28 states and seven Union Territories (UTs). Each state or UT is subdivided into districts for administrative purposes. As of 2008, India has 611 districts.

To learn more about TCI's nationwide service coverage, please visit our web site, www.tcil.com.
