Morbi - Coastal shipping between Kochi and Gujarat has been affected following disruptions in Morbi, leading to a noticeable decline in cargo volumes on the route.

According to industry sources, the slowdown in Morbi’s industrial output—particularly in ceramic manufacturing and related exports—has reduced cargo availability for coastal movement. As Morbi is a key cargo origin point for shipments bound for Kerala via Gujarat ports, the disruption has directly impacted feeder services operating along the west coast.

Logistics operators report lower container utilization on Kochi-bound vessels, with several sailings operating below optimal capacity . . .
