About AKV Shipping & Logistics
We're a Shipping and Logistics company based in Sri Lanka. Founded in 2010, AKV Shipping and Logistics Pvt Ltd began with a clear and deeply personal mission: to simplify the complex world of global relocation. In our early years, we specialized in serving a highly discerning clientele, managing intricate moves for migrants, diplomats, and international embassies. Understanding that a true home includes every member of the family, we set ourselves apart by providing specialized, compassionate pet plying services, ensuring our clients' beloved companions transitioned safely across borders.
From day one, uncompromising service has been our cornerstone. It is the catalyst that transforms first-time clients into lifelong partners, and it remains the defining hallmark of the AKV brand.
EXPANSION AND GLOBAL REACHAs global trade evolved, so did we. Leveraging our foundational expertise in handling high-stakes, sensitive personal cargo, AKV strategically diversified into Commercial Shipments. Our ability to manage large-scale, logistically complex operations was proven early on when we successfully executed the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM) Move-a monumental project that solidified our reputation as a trusted heavyweight in international logistics.
Today, AKV is an emerging regional powerhouse. In 2026, we marked a major milestone in our cross-border expansion by officially registering AKV Shipping India Pvt Ltd in Chennai. This strategic gateway strengthens our network, enhances our operational capabilities, and allows us to seamlessly bridge markets across the Indian Ocean and beyond.
Whether you are moving a household, a corporate headquarters, or commercial freight, AKV combines decades of logistical precision with a deeply rooted commitment to service. We don't just move cargo-we deliver certainty.
COMMERCIAL SHIPMENTS: POWERING BUSINESS WITHOUT BORDERSAt AKV Shipping and Logistics, commercial shipments are more than the movement of goods-they are the movement of businesses, opportunities, and growth. Built on our proven expertise in handling sensitive, time-critical international cargo, we have developed robust commercial logistics solutions tailored to manufacturers, exporters, importers, retailers, project contractors, and corporate clients.
Our commercial shipping division manages a wide spectrum of cargo, including full container loads (FCL), less-than-container loads (LCL), project cargo, industrial equipment, retail goods, raw materials, and specialized consignments. From documentation and customs clearance to freight forwarding, warehousing, and last-mile delivery, AKV provides an end-to-end logistics ecosystem designed to minimize delays and maximize reliability.
What sets AKV apart is our ability to combine global reach with personalized attention. Every shipment is planned with precision, monitored with care, and executed with accountability. Our experienced team works closely with clients to optimize shipping routes, control costs, navigate regulatory requirements, and ensure cargo reaches its destination safely and on schedule.
With our expanding regional network-including the strategic establishment of AKV Shipping India Pvt Ltd in Chennai-we are uniquely positioned to facilitate trade flows between Sri Lanka, India, and international markets worldwide. This growing presence enables us to offer faster connectivity, stronger partnerships, and greater flexibility for businesses looking to scale across borders.
For companies that value reliability, transparency, and long-term partnership, AKV is more than a logistics provider-we are a strategic ally in global commerce.
