Manipur is no longer just a border state; in 2026, it is the frontline of India’s trade with Southeast Asia. With the operationalization of the Asian Highway 1 (AH1) and the ongoing expansion of the Imphal Airport Cargo Terminal, the state has become a vital transshipment point. The logistics geography is anchored by the capital, Imphal, and the strategic border town of Moreh.
In a market defined by rugged terrain and high-stakes cross-border trade, businesses need tech-enabled Fulfilment that can maintain 100% visibility over inventory while navigating the unique logistical landscape of the Northeast.
