Industrial areas and zones in Nagpur
- MIHAN SEZ (multi-product SEZ developed by Maharashtra Airport Development Company with co-developers): aviation and aerospace, IT and IT-enabled services, pharmaceuticals, food processing
- MIHAN rail and road terminals (MADC logistics project area, with land allotted to CONCOR for a rail terminal): logistics, warehousing, cold storage

Ports and logistics
- Airport: Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar International Airport, operated by MIHAN India Limited since the Airports Authority of India handed it over in 2009
Nagpur has no seaport; rail and road terminals at MIHAN are meant to carry cargo to and from the coast, so buyers ask logistics firms for reliability evidence.

Questions Nagpur clients ask
Who supports ISO and GRC projects for companies in Nagpur?
Nagpur companies are served from Sterling's Mumbai office, which visits MIHAN and other sites when the work needs it and meets online otherwise. Effivity and Sterling Academy are included with the engagement. Sterling prepares the system and evidence, and accredited certification bodies you appoint issue the certificates.
What is MIHAN and why does it matter for certification in Nagpur?
MIHAN is the multi-modal cargo hub and airport project at Nagpur, developed by Maharashtra Airport Development Company, with a multi-product SEZ beside the airport. Its aviation, IT, pharmaceutical and food units face buyers who ask for quality, security and safety evidence, which is where certification demand in Nagpur concentrates.
Which aviation work is planned at MIHAN SEZ?
MIHAN SEZ describes itself as India's first SEZ directly linked to an airport, with aviation as a main focus and space for aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul. Firms bidding for such work are likely to meet aerospace quality requirements from customers. Which standards apply is set by each customer and regulator.
What does MIDC list for Nagpur-Amravati?
MIDC lists its Nagpur-Amravati land for aerospace and defence, engineering, textiles and food processing, and names Butibori among proposed greenfield industrial areas. These sectors generate quality, safety, environmental and food safety requests from buyers. Plot-level availability should be confirmed with MIDC.
