Over the past several years, Vaishnav Shetty has played a key role in shaping Allcargo’s digital transformation journey. He has overseen the launch of multiple digital and technology-driven initiatives designed to improve customer experience, streamline operations, and enhance visibility across complex logistics networks. His work has contributed to building more scalable, data-driven platforms that support the group’s global operations.

Commenting on the appointment, Shashi Kiran Shetty, Founder and Chairman of the Allcargo Group, said that the move reflects the company’s long-term commitment to building a strong and future-ready leadership framework. He noted that Vaishnav Shetty’s track record in driving digital innovation and business transformation demonstrates the readiness of the next generation of leadership to take on larger responsibilities. According to him, developing leaders from within the organisation ensures stability, resilience, and sustained value creation for stakeholders.

Adarsh Hegde added that Shetty represents the next phase of leadership at Allcargo Global, with a mindset aligned to innovation, technology adoption, and global growth. He expressed confidence that Shetty will play an increasingly important role as the company strengthens its position in the international logistics and supply chain landscape.

Reacting to his appointment, Vaishnav Shetty said he is honoured to take on the role at a time when Allcargo Global is preparing for its next chapter. He emphasised a continued focus on customer-centricity, disciplined execution, and technology-led innovation. He also highlighted the company’s ambition to further strengthen India’s role in global trade by expanding capabilities and deepening its global footprint.

With this appointment, Allcargo Global reinforces its intent to combine experienced leadership with next-generation thinking as it navigates structural change and long-term growth in a highly competitive global logistics environment.
