The Uttar Pradesh State Industrial Development Authority (UPSIDA) has approved eight new projects in the warehousing and logistics sector, involving proposed investments of around ₹800 crore, according to an official spokesperson on Monday.
The approvals have been granted under the Uttar Pradesh Warehousing and Logistics Policy-2022, which offers incentives such as financial assistance, tax exemptions, and support for setting up logistics and storage units on private land. Officials said the move reflects growing investor confidence in the state’s logistics ecosystem.
The newly sanctioned projects include five silos, two warehousing units, and one integrated logistics project. These developments will be spread across key districts including Unnao, Auraiya, Balrampur, Shravasti, Sultanpur, Lucknow, Gautam Buddha Nagar, and Hapur.
Officials noted that these projects are expected to significantly strengthen Uttar Pradesh’s agricultural and industrial supply chains by enhancing storage infrastructure and logistics efficiency.
So far, UPSIDA has approved 61 projects under the Warehousing and Logistics Policy-2022 and the PIP policy, with total proposed investments exceeding ₹12,900 crore. These projects will be developed across approximately 810 acres.
The state government expects the new infrastructure to boost safe storage capacity for foodgrains, improve logistics support for farmers, accelerate the development of multimodal logistics hubs and warehouse clusters, and generate substantial employment opportunities across the region.
