National Logistics Cell

National Logistics Cell

National Logistics Cell, known by the acronym NLC, is a Pakistan-based company established August 6, 1978 to reduce the congestion at Karachi Port, which had resulted in a waiting time of 50 days for the ships and was costing the Government $12.5 Million per annum in demurrage.

NLC introduced containerization to Pakistan and became the largest multi-modal freight handler in the region.

NLC also serves as the crisis management arm of the Pakistan Government in relation to logistics emergencies. In recognition of its services, NLC has been awarded the Gold Mercury Award by the Government of Pakistan.

It is currently being led by Major General Junaid Rehmat since June 2010.[1]
