Total Transport Solutions Maldives (Pvt) Ltd, frequently referred to as TTS Group Maldives, is a prominent logistics and maritime service provider established in 1992. Headquartered in Malé, the company has spent over three decades developing a specialized infrastructure designed to navigate the unique geographical challenges of the Maldivian archipelago. As a nation composed of widely dispersed islands, the Maldives relies heavily on efficient sea transport, and this entity functions as a critical bridge between international shipping lanes and domestic distribution networks.
The company operates as a joint venture, benefiting from a strategic alliance with Hayleys Advantis, a major logistics conglomerate based in Sri Lanka. This partnership allows Total Transport Solutions Maldives to combine local operational expertise with a global freight network, facilitating complex supply chain requirements. In the maritime sector, the company acts as a key vessel agency, representing various international shipping lines, feeder operators, and NVOCCs. Its agency services extend beyond commercial cargo vessels to include the handling of naval ships, research vessels, and superyachts calling at Malé and other regional ports.
A significant portion of the company’s operations focuses on marine offshore logistics. It provides essential husbandry services to vessels, ensuring that ships receive necessary supplies, crew changes, and spare parts while in transit. The company has also developed a niche in supporting the maritime security industry, handling the logistics for sea marshals. This involves the complex coordination of transferring security personnel and equipment to and from vessels at Off Port Limits (OPL), a service that requires precise timing and adherence to strict safety protocols.
Beyond port agency work, the company is deeply integrated into the inter-atoll transport network. Since standard international cargo often terminates at the main commercial port, Total Transport Solutions Maldives manages the "last mile" delivery via sea to resorts and inhabited islands. This capability is vital for the nation’s tourism industry, as the company frequently executes project logistics for resort construction, transporting heavy equipment and construction materials to remote locations. Through these multifaceted maritime operations, the company supports the continuous flow of goods and services essential to the island nation’s economy.
