Why Textile Exporters Choose ONS Logistics
Ludhiana and the broader Punjab region account for a significant share of India's textile and hosiery exports. Whether you produce knitwear, woven fabric, finished garments, or industrial thread, your export success depends on a logistics partner who understands seasonal demand surges, delicate cargo handling, and the strict timelines of international buyers.
ONS Logistics has spent years building freight corridors from Ludhiana to major ports — JNPT (Mumbai), ICD Ludhiana, Mundra — and onward to the USA, UK, Europe, Middle East, and Southeast Asia. Our team handles everything from packing and labelling compliance to freight booking and bill of lading management.

Ludhiana's Textile Hub — Our Home Ground
Ludhiana produces over 40% of India's woollen knitwear and is home to thousands of garment manufacturers and export houses. ONS Logistics was built in this ecosystem. We understand the city's trade lanes, the ICD Ludhiana facility, seasonal export peaks (October–February for winter wear), and the documentation requirements of buyers in Germany, the US, and the UAE.
Our proximity to manufacturers means faster pickup, quicker container stuffing, and a direct relationship with local customs officers — giving you a measurable advantage over logistics providers operating remotely.
