Storage built to keep quality intact.
from the godown to the grid.The National Commodity Supply Corporation of India operates a pan-India network of covered godowns, silos and cold storage units, engineered to protect procured commodities from intake to dispatch.
A storage network engineered around the commodity, not the other way around
Every commodity behaves differently in storage: wheat needs ventilation, oilseeds need moisture control, pulses need pest protection. The National Commodity Supply Corporation of India builds and operates a mixed storage network of covered godowns, silos, CAP storage and cold storage so each commodity is held in the conditions it actually needs.
Every site runs on the same standardized intake, monitoring and dispatch protocol, so stock quality stays consistent whether it is held for three weeks or eight months.
From gate-in to dispatch, six checkpoints
Every lot follows the same sequence through the warehouse, regardless of commodity or storage site.
Intake & Weighment
Incoming lots are weighed on digital weighbridges and logged against the source procurement centre before they enter the storage yard.
Quality Screening
A pre-storage check confirms moisture, foreign matter and infestation levels are within limits before allocation to a storage bay.
Fumigation & Treatment
Lots are fumigated and treated for pest control as required, with treatment records maintained against each storage batch.
Graded Storage Allocation
Stock is allocated to covered godowns, silos or CAP storage based on commodity, grade and expected holding period.
Inventory Monitoring
Warehouse management software tracks stock position, ageing and condition in real time across every location in the network.
Dispatch & Loading
A final weighment and quality check precede loading, with a dispatch record and quality note accompanying every outgoing lot.
Six storage formats, matched to the commodity
Site selection depends on commodity, expected holding period and throughput, not a one-size warehouse design.
Covered Godowns
Weatherproof, ventilated godowns for long-duration bulk storage of wheat, rice and pulses.
Steel Silos
High-capacity silos with automated intake and outflow for large single-commodity stock.
Cover & Plinth (CAP)
Raised, tarpaulin-covered plinth storage used for surplus stock during peak procurement season.
Cold Storage Units
Temperature-controlled chambers for perishable and moisture-sensitive commodities.
Bulk Handling Terminals
Rail- and road-linked terminals built for high-volume loading and unloading turnaround.
Automated Sorting Bays
Mechanised sorting and bagging lines that reduce manual handling and grain loss.
Storage capacity by commodity
Indicative allocation of combined storage capacity across the network's four core commodities.
What keeps stock safe once it's stored
24×7 CCTV & Security
Round-the-clock surveillance and on-site security personnel at every major storage site.
Automated Moisture Sensors
Continuous moisture monitoring flags spoilage risk before it affects stored stock.
Fire Detection & Suppression
Smoke detection and suppression systems installed across covered storage units.
Digital Weighbridge Network
Calibrated weighbridges at intake and dispatch points for accurate stock accounting.
Warehouse Management Software
A central WMS gives real-time visibility into stock position across every location.
Pest & Rodent Control
Scheduled fumigation and rodent control keep stored commodities within safety norms.
Storage you can register a receipt against
Eligible facilities are registered and audited against national warehousing and safety standards, so every storage record and receipt issued reflects a consistent, verifiable standard.
Warehousing, answered
The network includes covered godowns, steel silos, cover-and-plinth (CAP) storage, cold storage units, and bulk handling terminals, sized and selected by commodity and expected holding period.
