New facility caters to urgent cargo needs; logistics park records 70% occupancy within its first year

Bengaluru, October 14, 2026: Air India SATS Airport Services (AISATS) has introduced a Short-Term Warehousing (STW) solution at its BLR Logistics Park to provide flexible storage options for freight forwarders, shippers and businesses requiring temporary cargo storage.
The service caters to both general and temperature-controlled cargo, with storage available for periods starting from just one day. It allows customers to meet urgent and seasonal storage requirements without entering into long-term lease agreements.
Spread across eight acres, the AISATS BLR Logistics Park has achieved 70% occupancy within its first year of operations and is moving towards full occupancy. Located close to Bengaluru airport with direct access to NH44, the facility aims to reduce transportation costs and transit time by minimising the need to move cargo to warehouses located 40–50 km away.
The integrated logistics hub offers Grade A warehousing, customs-bonded storage, cold storage, cargo consolidation, office spaces and value-added services, including cargo transfers, packing, labelling, forklift support and dedicated manpower.
Leading logistics companies, including DHL, DSV, FedEx, Kuehne+Nagel and CEVA Logistics, have established operations at the facility. The new short-term storage service extends these facilities to small and mid-sized freight forwarders and businesses with occasional warehousing needs.
The solution is particularly useful during peak cargo seasons, including Diwali, Christmas and New Year, as well as for project cargo, oversized equipment and specialised consignments. The facility has already been used to store medical equipment requiring special handling, along with chemicals and pharmaceutical ingredients in its common-user cold storage facility.
Commenting on the initiative, Salim Chaudhary, Chief Operations Officer, AISATS, said the strong market response reflected the value and cost efficiencies offered by the integrated logistics park. He added that the short-term warehousing service was introduced to meet the growing demand for flexible storage, enabling customers to access modern infrastructure without long-term commitments.
With demand coming from sectors such as electronics, semiconductors, engineering, aerospace and pharmaceuticals, AISATS aims to strengthen its role in supporting Bengaluru’s growing air cargo and logistics ecosystem.
