Short answer

How does Lozy help retailers import?

Retailers importing into India need stock landed on time, labelled to Indian rules and stored until it’s needed. Lozy handles customs clearance, checks Legal Metrology and product compliance, offers bonded storage to defer duty, and warehouses stock across our network.

What slows retail imports down

The usual reasons shipments sit at the port longer than they should.

  • Seasonal deadlines

    Stock that misses the season loses value fast.

  • Labelling rules

    Packaged goods must carry Indian labelling details before sale.

  • Duty on unsold stock

    Paying full duty up front on a range that may not sell hurts margins.

  • Peak-season space

    Extra stock needs room without a long lease.

What we check

Before anything ships, we go through these with you.

Every check is done before booking, when fixing a problem is quick and cheap.

Seasonal stock for Delhi NCR and beyond

Containers clear at the NCR ICDs — Tughlakabad, Patparganj, Dadri — land in a Lozy warehouse in NCR, and ship to stores or online customers as the season moves.

Bonded storage defers duty on the slow movers.

What labels do imported retail goods need?
