Nearshoring is opening up new opportunities for businesses in India

That's a far cry from the days when cheapest counted above all else in global supply chains. Now, companies are rewriting the rulebook. Now resilience along with agility and strategic proximity has become the priority over bottom-of-the-barrel costs.

Welcome to the age of nearshoring! And India isn’t just playing it; they’re winning. So now what does this mean for your international shipping requirements? If you’re couriering prototypes to Bangalore or medical equipment to Mumbai, there’s no longer any excuse for not selecting the speediest logistics partner that makes same-day delivery service in India possible.

So why has India become the preferred nearshoring hotspot? And how can Atlantic International Express keep your supply chain flowing? Let's dive deep in this blog!


What Is Nearshoring? And Why Now?

Nearshoring refers to the strategic relocation of manufacturing or service operations from more distant (or geographically unaligned) countries to nearby (or geopolitically aligned) ones as a means of reducing exposure to high-risk areas, including China.

But if you scratch the surface, you will realize that it’s not just about proximity, it is also about risk mitigation, speed to market and stronger partnership.

According to a 2024 McKinsey report, 74% of global companies are actively diversifying their supply chains away from single-country dependence, with India cited as a top-three alternative for 62% of respondents.

You add to that India’s burgeoning digital infrastructure, its talented workforce and government initiatives like “Make in India” and “Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes,” you’ve got a perfect storm of opportunity!


India’s Rise: In Numbers

  • Investments coming into India reached $71 billion in 2023 and the country had the sixth largest source of FDI worldwide.

  • India’s logistics industry is expected to touch the $380 billion mark by 2025 with a CAGR of 10.5% +.

  • More than 50 global tech and manufacturing giants including Apple, Samsung and even Foxconn, have expanded or relocated their production in India just over the last two years.

This is not just growth! It is a structural realignment of global trade flows. And with that comes growing demand for international express cargo that is fast, secure and can be traced every step of the way.


The Courier Conundrum: Speed + Visibility = Trust

When your business runs on just-in-time inventory or time-sensitive shipments, such as pharmaceuticals, electronics or legal documents, how quickly something is delivered is only half the battle.

The other half? Real-time visibility. This is where a dependable courier tracking comes in as your knight in shining armor. Can you imagine being able to track your high value shipment in mid-air, receive automatic push notifications for customs clearance or delays.
