Why Kozhikode students come to Kochi for logistics

Kochi is where Kerala’s logistics industry is concentrated: Cochin Port and the Vallarpadam container terminal, the airport cargo complex, the Kalamassery and Kakkanad warehouse belt, and the freight-forwarding, shipping-agency and courier companies that hire operations staff every month. A course taught inside that belt puts you next to the people who hire, and next to the group’s own logistics operations where practical sessions happen.

Students from Kozhikode city, Vadakara, Koyilandy, Feroke, Ramanattukara and Kunnamangalam have all made this move. The ride is around four hours by train to Aluva or Ernakulam; the Kalamassery campus is ten minutes from Aluva station. Most students stay in the Kalamassery–Aluva area for the year and travel home at weekends; ask the counsellor about the arrangements current students use.

Which course fits you

Every course includes SAP training in the fee, communication and interview preparation, industrial visits and placement support. See eligibility and duration and what the SAP module covers.

What Kozhikode has, and what Kochi adds

Kozhikode (Calicut) has its own logistics economy — Beypore port, the Cyberpark and the district’s timber, food and spice export trade — and those employers need trained operations staff too. What Kochi adds is volume: hundreds of forwarders, shipping lines, CFS operators and e-commerce hubs within one district, which is where a fresher gets the first job fastest. Once you have a year of experience, moving back to Kozhikode for a coordinator or supervisor role is a normal path.

Jobs our students go into

The roles Laurus students are placed into are freight forwarding operations, logistics coordinator, dispatch coordinator, warehouse supervisor, hub in-charge, supply chain analyst, documentation executive and inside sales coordinator.
