The global impact of COVID19 on online business is set to usher growth in policies for purchases and supply as this will remain a trend until the spread of COVID19 remains a threat to the Indian population. With Bengaluru being the hub for e-commerce and 3PL players in South India, it makes Hosur a great potential for industrial parks business. Hosur is located in Tamil Nadu alongside the industrial corridor between Bangalore and Chennai barely 60 km from the city center of Bengaluru thus offering great business prospects. Hosur is a well-developed industrial area and part of the Bangalore industrial micro-market. Bengaluru houses several prominent autos, auto ancillary, and other manufacturing units apart from e-commerce and 3PL companies providing a great possibility of business progression. The warehousing sector in Bengaluru is expected to continue its growth momentum with industrial supportive initiatives by Government like conferring the industry infrastructure status and also supporting through easing the approval processes for lands and allotting funds for the growth of the sector. Embassy Industrial Parks, the pioneer in the lean model of warehousing have already announced its entry to South India with Hosur. The park’s strategic location offers a great opportunity to Embassy Industrial Park’s clients to meet the needs of the consumers thus offering them a great spot for fruitful business execution.

We are happy to share the construction of our industrial park is progressing and we already have interest from our existing clients in the Hosur under construction project. The pandemic has slowed the process but as soon as we come out of this, things will surely speed up. Hosur with its close proximity to Bengaluru city is a promising location and the positioning of our industrial park will surely pay off clients who lease in this facility.”
