Southern India is emerging as a key growth market for warehousing, logistics and supply-chain infrastructure, driven by expanding manufacturing, eCommerce, organized retail, third-party logistics and the need for faster, more efficient distribution networks.
Against this backdrop, the 6th edition of Intralogistics & Warehousing Expo, South India’s leading Warehousing & Supply Chain Expo, will be held from 15–17 October 2026 at Chennai Trade Centre, bringing together warehouse operators, manufacturers, logistics companies, 3PLs, eCommerce businesses, retailers and technology providers from across India.
The growth of Tamil Nadu’s industrial and logistics ecosystem is creating significant opportunities for warehousing. According to Colliers, Chennai accounted for 22% of industrial and warehousing leasing across India’s top eight cities last year, reflecting strong demand from manufacturing, engineering, 3PL and e-commerce sectors.
As companies expand their distribution networks, the focus is shifting beyond adding warehouse capacity towards building faster, smarter and more technology-enabled facilities. This is driving demand across warehouse infrastructure, industrial storage, material handling and logistics solutions, including racking and shelving, industrial flooring, steel structures and PEBs, mezzanine floors, loading and docking solutions, forklifts, pallets and material handling systems, alongside AS/RS, robotics and cobots, AGVs and AMRs, conveyor and sortation systems, WMS, AI, IoT, RFID, machine vision and automated picking and packing solutions.
The diverse product mix makes the expo relevant to MSMEs, manufacturers, distributors, logistics companies and large industrial buyers across Southern India, offering solutions for both new facilities and the modernization of existing operations.
Anuj Mathur, MD, future market Events, said, “Warehousing and intralogistics are critical to building an efficient and resilient industrial supply chain, while packaging plays an equally important role in ensuring products are protected and ready for movement. Bringing these two sectors together creates a powerful end-to-end platform for the industry. The combination of Intralogistics & Warehousing Expo and PackVision Expo offers businesses a comprehensive view of how products are stored, handled, moved and packaged. This convergence makes it a compelling industrial trade platform, connecting technology providers and decision-makers across the entire supply chain.”
Tamil Nadu’s warehousing growth is supported by strong manufacturing and consumption demand. Industrial clusters around Sriperumbudur, Oragadam, Tiruvallur, Red Hills, Maraimalai Nagar and Chengalpattu are generating requirements for storage, distribution and value-added logistics services. The expo is also expected to attract a dedicated buyer delegation from Sri Lanka, creating additional international sourcing and business opportunities for exhibitors.
The expo will feature leading companies across material handling, warehouse automation, storage, packaging, industrial infrastructure and smart warehousing, including Nilkamal Material Handling, Gandhi Automations, Yugal Concrete Floors, Addverb Technologies, Banner Engineering, Tirupati Technopacks, Ferromonk Steel Structures, Roxul Rockwool Technical Insulation, Aerolamp Insulations, Armour Steel Buildings, MHE BAZAAR, Action Construction Equipment, Mercuriis Storage & Equipment, PM Technologies and many more.
The event will also host three focused industry conferences, bringing together industry leaders, technology experts and decision-makers to discuss the trends shaping warehousing, intralogistics, supply chains and industrial logistics, with discussions spanning automation, digitalisation, infrastructure, operational efficiency and future-ready supply chains.
The expo will attract decision-makers from manufacturing, automotive, electronics, engineering, e-commerce, retail, FMCG, pharmaceuticals, cold chain, 3PL and logistics, providing exhibitors with opportunities to connect with businesses investing in new facilities and upgrading existing operations.
Intralogistics & Warehousing Expo will bring this transformation into focus, creating a meeting point for the businesses, technologies and professionals shaping the future of warehousing and supply chains in Southern India.
