Shafna Logistics Expands Pan-India Cold Chain Network

Shafna Logistics has evolved from a modest single-truck operation into a nationwide cold chain logistics provider with a strong presence across India. Founded in 1977 in Surat, the company now operates more than 150 vehicles, serving FMCG, dairy, frozen foods, and temperature-sensitive cargo. With steady diversification and operational discipline, it has built a reliable logistics network aligned with India’s growing demand for efficient and scalable supply chain solutions.

Legacy-Driven Growth in Cold Chain Logistics

Shafna Logistics began as a small transport business when founder Mr. Viraf T Jungalwala personally handled operations with a single truck. Over time, the company grew through consistent service, customer trust, and deep knowledge of Indian transport conditions. For decades, its operations were rooted in Gujarat’s dairy sector, where timely and temperature-controlled delivery was critical.

As market demands evolved between 2010 and 2015, the company expanded beyond regional operations into a wider pan-India cold chain logistics network, covering Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, and other key commercial regions. This shift marked a strategic transition from a single-sector focus to a diversified logistics model.

Today, under second-generation leadership led by Mr. Hanoz Viraf Jungalwala and Mr. Homi Viraf Jungalwala, Shafna Logistics operates a fleet of over 150 vehicles, including multi-axle trucks and light commercial vehicles designed for varied cargo needs.

The company now handles a broad mix of goods including dairy products, ice cream, frozen foods, fruits and vegetables, LPG cylinders, cement, RMC, and containerized cargo. Its cold chain logistics operations are supported by GPS-based telematics systems that track temperature, delivery timelines, and vehicle movement to ensure reliability and transparency.

Preventive maintenance, authorised servicing, and experienced 24×7 operational teams further strengthen service quality across its expanding logistics network.

Conclusion

From its origins with a single truck in 1977 to a nationwide cold chain logistics provider, Shafna Logistics has built its growth on trust, adaptability, and operational discipline. With a diversified fleet and strong focus on technology and service reliability, the company continues to strengthen its position in India’s evolving logistics and perishable goods sector.
