Having been founded by Sudesh Mendis, MD, with exporting goods worth just US$100 to the Maldives, Ocean Trade & Logistics have come a long way to enhance its capacity not only as a leading exporter operating regularly on Sea & Air, but also venturing into many other fields. The company created history last year by exporting the highest number of containers to the Maldives from Sri Lanka. Ocean Trade & Logistic (Pvt) Ltd., is special in that all their exports are under the company’s supervision to ensure damage free safe transportation at a reasonable price to the Maldives.

They have also obtained the agency to export compost under the brand name UNI GROW. Ocean Trade & Logistic has earned a reputation as the number one seller of the best compost that is ideal for the soil in the Maldives. The significance of this venture is the fact that Ocean Trade & Logistic brings in 100% foreign exchange by exporting a product manufactured with 100% local raw material.
