Flipkart has acquired 140-acre land to set up their largest fulfilling centre in Asia in Manesar in Gurgaon in a bid to scale up their fulfilment infrastructure to cater to increased demand post Covid.
The executive empowered committee of Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (HSIIDC) has approved the allotment at a cost of Rs. 432 crore. Flipkart will set up a logistic park in the land parcel over the next 3-5 years, which has a potential of a total built up area of five million square feet and will be developed in 2-3 phases. The development is expected to cost Rs. 3,500 crore and will create over 12,000 jobs in the state. The first phase is likely to be operationalised by 2022.
