Hand-carriage debut of jewellery exports from Kolkata airport

Kolkata airport facilitated hand-carriage exports of gems and jewellery to Italy and Dubai, showcasing a streamlined process. Senco Gold and M Sashi Badalia & Sons utilized this efficient method, reducing clearance times to two days. This week, Kolkata airport conducted two hand-carriage exports of gems and jewellery from the city to Italy and Dubai.

While the second consignment was dispatched to Dubai on Wednesday night through the hand luggage of a representative from M Sashi Badalia & Sons Pvt Ltd, the first consignment was hand-carried in a personal baggage on Monday by Senco Gold MD and CEO Suvankar Sen to Milan for an exhibition.

“With clearance timelines now down to just two days, hand-carriage has become an efficient and reliable export option. It’s helping us meet tighter delivery schedules, keep our clients happier, and even cater to urgent or last-minute shipment. We will look at this model for other international markets as well,” said Golubhai Badalia, M Sashi Badalia & Sons, Director and Founder.
