Gujarat Maritime Cluster
- Gujarat Maritime Board (GMB) is in the process to develop Gujarat Maritime Cluster at GIFT City in the state capital Gandhinagar in order to address logistics of ports and seaways.
- This cluster will initially consist of Gujarat-based shipping lines, freight forwarders, shipping agents, bunker suppliers, stevedores, and ship brokers with chartering requirements.
Need
- Gujarat has the highest number of operational commercial ports and handles 40 percent of the country’s cargo. However, despite this fact, there is no distinct town or city in Gujarat with a strong maritime identity.
