Eagle Logistics Colombo completed its sixth successful year in the international logistics business in Sri Lanka on 20 October 2011.

The company started its business in 2005 with two staff members and the back office support of CL Synergy (Pvt) Limited. Today it has a staff strength of over 60 with its head office located at No. 209 Dharmapala Mawatha, Colombo 7 and two branches in Katunayake and Biyagama.

Managing Director Asanga Weerackody said that there was only one reason Eagle Logistics Colombo was at this level today and the credit went solely to his staff.

“For a company to be successful you need not have experienced personnel in the logistics industry working for you but you should have people with the right attitude. We have a very young team. They are energetic, wonderfully creative and talented. Their ideas, thoughts and way of thinking are beneficial to the success of our business. This is why the company slogan goes as ‘Think Different,’” he said.

Eagle Logistics Colombo serves most of the corporate giants in Sri Lanka involving import, export and custom brokerage and even goes to the extent of having Eagle staff sitting at the customers’ locations handling the shipping desk.Eagle Logistics is the exclusive agent partner in Sri Lanka for BDP International, which is a privately-owned company with its headquarters in Philadelphia. It has global coverage between Beijing and Brussels, Singapore and Sao Paulo, Toronto and Tokyo and Milan and Manchester and in more than 115 cities across the globe. Weerackody added that with BDP, the company can offer any transportation solutions from any part of the world.
