Founded in 2008, Pristine Group is one of India’s leading integrated logistics providers, built around the strength of rail-based multi-modal transport.
The company handles containerised and bulk cargo across both rail and road networks, offering comprehensive logistics solutions that include warehousing, storage, cargo handling, and third-party logistics (3PL) services.
With a growing presence on both the eastern and western coasts and operations spanning key logistics hubs across the country, Pristine enables large-scale, pan-India supply chain movement with efficiency and reliability.
Pristine Group has established a strong track record of execution in the development and operation of Inland Container Depots (ICDs) and Private Freight Terminals (PFTs), with an integrated logistics model centred on rail connectivity. These assets form the foundation of a scalable, multimodal network designed to support the movement of complex cargo across India and into Nepal.
The Group currently operates five strategically located logistics parks in Kanpur (Uttar Pradesh), Ludhiana (Punjab), Siliguri (West Bengal), Patna (Bihar), and Birgunj (Nepal). These facilities are authorized to handle both containerized cargo and freight transported via Indian Railways’ wagon infrastructure.
Pristine’s multimodal capabilities span a wide range of cargo operations, broadly classified into:
Containerised cargo (EXIM and domestic)
Non-containerised cargo, including liquid, break-bulk, and bulk commodities
Integrated rail and road solutions are central to operations, with services structured around rail-linked PFTs, ICDs, and hinterland connectivity for EXIM cargo. The Group facilitates efficient movement through container train operations (CTO), specialised platforms such as dwarf containers, and seamless transitions between rail and road modalities. Multimodal connectivity also supports cross-border cargo flow, particularly for Indo-Nepal trade.
Terminal operations encompass cargo handling, storage, consolidation, and distribution via Indian Railways’ wagon system, while third-party logistics (3PL) services incorporate value-added components, including warehousing, labelling, and packaging.
Pristine’s first-mile and last-mile capabilities enhance end-to-end control and operational reliability, reinforcing its position as a fully integrated multimodal logistics provider. The Group owns and operates:
~ 905,000 sq. ft. of warehousing space
~ 2,624 domestic standard containers and 395 dwarf containers
~ 390 trailers and 37 rakes
This infrastructure-backed service ecosystem enables scalable, pan-India logistics execution across multiple cargo types and modes of transport.
Pristine Group is committed to integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles into its operations. Key focus areas include reducing carbon emissions, conserving water, and implementing sustainable waste management practices. The Group consistently aligns with global best practices in environment, health, safety, and social performance standards.
