Ultratech Cement Ltd

We operate down by the Gujarat Pipavav Port in the Amreli district. Being near the water means we deal with a lot of humidity, which isn't always great for cement, so we have to stay on top of how we store everything. The trucks move in and out of the port area all day long. It's a loud place to work with all the industrial activity around us. Our spot in Gujarat 365520 in India is mostly about logistics and making sure the supply chain stays moving. We spend a lot of time on the phone coordinating with the port staff and the transport guys. It is a bit of a trek for some, but being right here makes sense for the scale of what we handle. There’s no air conditioning in the main storage areas, so it gets hot in the summer months, but that's just part of the job in Amreli. We have a small team that knows the layout of the port like the back of their hands. We don't have a big front office for visitors, it's more of a working site. Most of the time, we’re just making sure the bags are dry and the loading happens on schedule. It’s a repetitive cycle of unloading and reloading, but it keeps the local construction projects going. We’ve been at this site for a while and have seen the port grow quite a bit over the years.
