Overview

Almost everything the Maldives consumes arrives by sea. We move it in the way that costs you least per delivered unit. A dedicated FCL when volume justifies it, a weekly LCL slot when it does not, and breakbulk or flat-rack when the cargo simply will not fit a box.

Because we control the consolidation at origin and the clearance at destination, there is no hand-off where accountability disappears. You get one rate, one schedule and one team that answers for both ends of the lane.

What is included

FCL: 20ft, 40ft, 40ft HC and reefer

Direct and transhipment services via Colombo, Singapore, Port Klang, Jebel Ali and Tuticorin with negotiated allocations on the main carriers.

LCL consolidation

Weekly groupage boxes from key origins so a single pallet moves on a schedule instead of waiting for volume to build.

Reefer & controlled temperature

Temperature-set containers for frozen and chilled provisions, with pre-trip inspection records and plug-in monitoring on arrival.

Breakbulk, RORO & out-of-gauge

Flat racks, open tops, and chartered landing craft for generators, construction plant, boats and prefabricated structures.

Cargo insurance

All-risk marine cover arranged on request, with claims handled by our team rather than left to the shipper.

Harbour to island

Discharge, de-stuffing, palletisation and onward transfer by landing craft to resort and island destinations across all 20 atolls.
