Teleport ties up with House of Masaba to export face masks to Southeast Asia

July 4, 2020: Teleport India, AirAsia’s logistics arm, ties up with House of Masaba to export essentials (face masks) to Southeast Asia.

Teleport India will be delivering masks to markets in Southeast Asia to combat the Covid-19 pandemic. Teleport India is operational with more than 440 flights per month out of India with their base in eight cities - Delhi, Chennai, Bangalore, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Trichy, Kochi and Visakhapatnam.

“Shipments with essentials from other SME brands will continue to be exported to other countries, cementing India’s position as an emerging manufacturing powerhouse. Speaking about the SMEs, especially operating in India’s Fashion industry, have received a further impetus to expand the reach, distribution and promotion of their products and thereby compete against the global giants in the highly competitive sector. Moreover, Prime Minister Modi’s clarion call to the nation to support local brands, and the announcement of ‘Vocal for Local’ campaign in line with that, has opened up a new horizon for Indian manufacturers,” said the release.

Nipun Anand, Director, Teleport India, said “The world is witnessing a paradigm shift from traditional buying and selling mediums to social commerce platforms. At Teleport India, through our constant innovation, we try to provide infrastructure directly accessible to the masses, including consumer-to-consumer (C2C) deliveries through social platforms via social commerce.”
