- Business: 85-year-old, family-run marine logistics company (4th generation) headquartered across Singapore, India and Dubai with ~1,000 employees and a debt-free balance sheet.
- Core offering: Integrated sea logistics with complementary air cargo and on-road transport, end-to-end freight forwarding, chartering, vessel acquisition and fleet leasing.
- Port services: Large, long-established cargo stevedoring and dredging operator in Mangalore serving bulk and general cargo.
- Shipping fleet: Vessel-owning and chartering division (HQ Singapore) provides global shipping including Handy-to-Cape bulk carriers for dry bulk and charter services.
- Air cargo: Dubai-headquartered air cargo division with contractual agreements with DHL across 11+ countries for international air freight and express logistics.
- Warehousing & distribution: Smart warehousing, last-mile delivery and on-road transport for multimodal supply chain and distribution management.
- Customs & compliance: Customs clearance, documentation and regulatory liaison leveraging strong government relationships across multiple countries.
- Customer base: Large industrial and trading clients including Maersk, ArcelorMittal, Essar, Glencore, CMA CGM, Qatar Govt, IFFCO and major steel, mining and commodity houses.
- Revenue mix: Dry bulk shipping focused on iron ore and coal (~40% each of dry bulk volumes) with remaining 20% from steel and other bulk goods; additional revenue from freight forwarding, chartering, stevedoring, warehousing and last-mile services.
- Global network: Partners and associates across Europe, USA, Gulf, Far East and Africa enabling international trade lanes and cross-border logistics.
- Fundraising use: Raising growth capital to expand fleet, scale air/road operations, enhance smart warehousing and deepen global service coverage (full details available to introduced investors).
- While the monthly revenue may appear high relative to the employee count, it is driven by the volume of shipping orders received and the size of bulk consignments.
- The advisor handling the transaction is not in the country right now but will be available to handle the transaction.
