The Gateway Awards
Today, global trade is impacted by several transformations and disruptions. Amidst all these rapid changes, the Indian shipping and logistics industry is trying its best to stay afloat and serve the trade while contributing to the growth of the economy. During the last year shipping industry has witnessed significant developments like carrier consolidation, modernisation of ports, capacity expansions at ports and terminals, expansion of ICDs and CFS, innovations in cargo forwarding, digitalisation, etc., giving thrust to the businesses in a way that nullifies the impact of setbacks.
Those who are part of this impressive growth story deserve recognition. With all your profound support and encouragement, once again, Gateway Awards 2026 comes to you with the call for nominations.
