PT Pelindo Solusi Logistik (SPSL), a subholding of Indonesia’s state-owned port operator Pelindo, reported strong performance through August 2025, driven by operational efficiencies and improved synergy across its logistics and hinterland development businesses.
The company, which manages integrated services in and around Indonesia’s ports, recorded year-on-year growth in key operational metrics, underscoring its push for streamlined services and enhanced customer value.
“This positive performance demonstrates that the synergy we’ve built across our operations is starting to show concrete results,” said Joko Noerhudha, President Director of SPSL. “We are focused on strengthening our operational fundamentals to ensure our services are efficient, integrated, and value-driven.”
Logistics Services Boost Freight Volumes
SPSL’s freight forwarding operations handled 98,360 boxes as of August, a 14.4% increase from 85,950 boxes in the same period last year. The surge was largely fueled by rising demand for trucking services in the Palembang and Lampung regions, which exceeded the company’s 2025 work plan target by nearly 2%.
The growth reflects SPSL’s strategy to reinforce its distribution and transport network, aligning with its broader mission to offer seamless, integrated logistics solutions.
Hinterland Assets Strengthen Core Business
In its hinterland development portfolio, SPSL reported an occupancy rate of 82.7% at Pelindo Tower, surpassing its annual target of 102.8% of planned capacity. The 34,158-square-metre facility has emerged as a strategic hub for business and operational coordination within the Pelindo Group.
Meanwhile, traffic along the Cibitung–Cilincing Toll Road (JTCC), a key access route to industrial and port areas, rose 10.3% from a year earlier, with over 8.49 million vehicles recorded by the end of August.
“We are working to integrate tariffs on the JTCC to remain competitive with other toll roads,” Noerhudha said. “With more efficient pricing and smoother access, we believe JTCC will become the preferred route for industrial logistics.”
Transformation Agenda on Track
SPSL is continuing to implement its Transforming Business 2025–2026 strategy, which prioritizes digitalisation, multimodal connectivity, integration of hinterland assets, and stronger financial and risk governance.
“This achievement lays a critical foundation for growth through year-end,” Noerhudha said. “We remain committed to sustainable value creation through innovation and efficiency, ensuring every service contributes meaningfully to our customers and stakeholders.”
SPSL is one of several strategic subholdings under Pelindo, which consolidated its national port operations in 2021 to improve efficiency, reduce logistics costs, and support Indonesia’s maritime economy.
