SriLankan Cargo triumphs at National Logistics Awards

SriLankan Cargo made a double win at the recent National Logistics Awards, taking home ‘Gold’ in the Airline category and an ‘Award of Recognition’ for its prolific contribution to the economy through air cargo services during the pandemic. 

The National Logistics Awards were organised by the Sri Lanka Logistics and Freight Forwarders Association and attended by over 500 participants from freight forwarding, shipping and courier companies and other airlines.  

SriLankan Cargo strategised and went beyond to provide innovative solutions to the Sri Lankan logistics community in the past two years following the onset of COVID-19. Effectively, SriLankan Cargo was able to bridge gaps in the market and uphold air transportation of goods including essential medical supplies between Sri Lanka and the rest of the world during this period. SriLankan Airlines uplifts over 31% of the total exports from Sri Lanka, allocating 56% of the airline’s capacity out of the Colombo base station. 

The awards won are a testament to SriLankan Cargo’s remarkable contribution to the air cargo industry and economy of Sri Lanka. The cargo business of SriLankan Airlines hopes to make further strides as it continues on the path of innovation and creating value for its esteemed logistics partners and customers.  SriLankan Cargo has been expanding its services rapidly, using Colombo as a “Hub in the Ocean” to link the fast-growing economies of the South Asia with Europe, the Middle, Southeast Asia and the Far East.
