## Description

Fresh produce, meat, dairy and textiles set the tone of the freight moving through Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International Airport (ATQ), the principal air gateway of India's far northwest near the Pakistan border. The airport runs a dedicated cargo terminal with customs clearance, bonded warehousing and cold-chain handling for temperature-sensitive shipments, alongside pharmaceuticals. Road links to the national highway grid and nearby rail open up the agricultural and industrial belt of Punjab. Terminal upgrades and new international routes are widening its trade reach across North India. A notable feature is the strong diaspora demand that sustains regular Gulf and United Kingdom connections.
