Allcargo Logistics Ltd, a leading integrated logistics provider, has received an award for ‘Best Risk Management Practice’ in the category of Supply Chain (Logistics) at the 3rd India Risk Management Awards 2017 which was held at Taj Lands End, Mumbai.

While acknowledging the bottlenecks, Shashi Kiran Shetty, Founder and Chairman, Allcargo Logistics, expects that positive governance will bring a new wave in the Indian logistics industry.
