The Cochin Port CFS, the largest one in the state , had completed a major expansion newly creating facilities for storage of reefer containers, unaccompanied baggage container of NRIs and on-wheel inspection and clearance for EXIM containers. The CFS also provides exclusive space for containers carrying highly hazardous cargo. The Port has revamped its 10,000 sq. m of covered area and recently added imported smokeless forklifts to its fleet to handle sensitive cargo. CFS has also created new ramp facility for inspection of imported containers which facilitates custom examination of 7 containers at a time. The CFS now meets all the trade requirements in one compound.
