EFL 3PL, a member of the leading conglomerate Expolanka PLC, recently established a new, state-of-the-art Fulfilment Centre in Kandana located at 370 A, Nugape Junction, Uswetakeiyawa, Kandana, to complement its award-winning third-party logistics and digital supply chain management solutions.
The Fulfilment Centre is conveniently located dissecting the Bandaranaike International Airport and the Port of Colombo to facilitate import and export operations. Being fully BOI-approved, the Fulfilment Centre grants BOI companies with convenience and seamless utilisation of its facilities. EFL 3PL is reputed for being the benchmark in the country with a focus on using technology and compliance to deliver agility, scalability and accuracy.
Sprawling across 85,000 square feet or 6,500 cubic meters, reinforced by HighJump, the tier one Warehouse Management System (WMS), the Fulfilment Centre is the right sized facility with ample allowance for expansion, whilst offering superior connectivity to arterial road and highway networks. Catering to the needs of reputed local and global clientele, this modern facility is highly secure, complying with the highest standards. In modifying the Fulfilment Centre, EFL 3PL has considered present and emerging needs of clients and even offer facilities to place clients’ administration staff on site if they so desire. The setting up of the Fulfilment Centre ensures greater flexibility to dedicate buildings for specialty operations.
EFL Founder/President and Expolanka Holdings PLC Group CEO Hanif Yusoof said: “EFL having owned and managed large scale 3PL facilities within our global network, we have come to realise that the increasing demand is for the right sized facility at the right location, in order to cater to agility and to be more responsive. Therefore, the launch of the new Fulfilment Centre in Kandana is yet another bold step to entrench EFL 3PL’s identity as a holistic supply chain solutions provider.”
“Underpinned by advanced tech platforms, global compliance and speed in the world of business today, we believe this new facility will provide a competitive edge to our clients for greater agility and efficiency, thus becoming the preferred and best 3PL in the eyes of our clients,” said EFL 3PL and Freeport Director Sammy Akbar.
