India’s leading e-commerce player Snapdeal has strengthened its logistics network in the country, with the addition of eight new centres within commercial hubs across India.
 

Snapdeal has said that the new centres will ensure faster pickup of packets from the sellers and expedite deliveries, especially during the upcoming festive season.
 
The new centres are located inside the manufacturing hubs at Bahadurgarh, Rajkot, Bhiwandi, Agra, Yamuna Nagar, Noida, Mathura, and Mumbai. With the new additions, the company now runs 23 logistics centres.

Commenting on the expansion of its logistics network, Snapdeal spokesperson in a statement said: “The additional logistics capacity comes ahead of the festive season sale when the volume of orders is higher. The new centres make the fulfillment process simpler for the manufacturer-sellers so that they can devote all their resources towards production.”
 
The new centres cater to the growing shipment volumes from manufacturers, which are opting to sell directly on Snapdeal, bypassing or supplementing the traditional structure of selling through wholesalers and retailers.
 
Snapdeal has more than 5 lac sellers in its platform and services over 26,000 pin codes across India, which includes all the metros, tier 1, 2 cities, and most of tier 3 and 4 towns of India.
