What is the standard delivery turnaround time for ship stores at Kandla and Mundra?

For vessels calling at Kandla Port, stores are typically delivered to the berth gangway within 1 to 2 hours after customs clearance from our Gandhidham warehouse. For Mundra Port, transit takes approximately 2 to 3 hours via the NH 41 corridor.

Can shipowners and masters order using IMPA or ISSA code numbers?

Yes. Our inventory management and quoting software is fully integrated with 6-digit IMPA and ISSA codes. Simply transmit your standard requisition spreadsheet, and our commercial desk will match the exact technical specifications.

Do you provide launch boat deliveries to outer anchorage positions?

Yes. We partner with licensed harbour launch operators at Kandla, Mundra, Mumbai, and other coastal ports to supply provisions, technical stores, and safety gear to vessels lying at outer anchorage roads.

How do you guarantee the freshness of food provisions delivered onboard?

All fresh and frozen provisions are handled through certified cold-chain staging at our Gandhidham facility and delivered in refrigerated vehicles directly to the gangway with temperature logs.
