What we move
End-to-end freight forwarding, by air and sea
Four core services, one accountable team — from the moment your goods leave the supplier to the moment they reach your island.
Air freight & cargo clearance
Fast air cargo and customs clearance for perishables, urgent parts and high-value goods landing at Velana International.
Ocean & sea freight
FCL and LCL ocean freight, consolidated and cleared, with onward delivery by landing craft and dhoni.
Project cargo clearance
Oversized and project cargo for resort builds and infrastructure — permits, handling and island delivery managed end to end.
Warehousing & distribution
Bonded and dry storage in Malé with pick, pack and scheduled distribution across the atolls.
Why Lion Logistics
Built for the hardest geography in shipping
A thousand islands across 20 atolls means the last mile is the hard mile. We own every step — so a single missed connection never strands your cargo at the airport or the port.
One team, origin to island
Your coordinator stays with the shipment all the way to its final atoll.
Customs expertise on the ground
Licensed brokers who clear duties and permits without the back-and-forth.
Sea and air under one roof
We pick the mode that fits your deadline and budget — not just what we sell.
98.6%
on-time delivery to the final atoll, last 12 months
