‘Civaro’ to take Hayleys Advantis’ logistics capabilities global

The evolution of the Hayleys Group’s capabilities in cargo logistics entered a new phase of global dimensions this week, with the launch of its new brand ‘Civaro’ which will leverage on the group’s existing multi faceted operations to position itself as an integrated A-to-Z supply chain management (SCM) provider of regional and potentially global significance, a company press release said.

The result will see Civaro International offering ocean and air freight, inland transportation, warehousing and distribution management, customs clearance and supply chain management in Sri Lanka as well as in India, Bangladesh, the Maldives, Russia, China, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Fiji, USA and in many countries in Europe.

“The launch of Civaro is a significant step towards the Hayleys Advantis vision of becoming a leading integrated logistics service provider in the Asia-Pacific region,” Hayleys Advantis Managing Director Omar Raban said. “We have all the necessary elements for this within the Group, in the form of companies specialising in freight forwarding and logistics and others in Hayleys Advantis involved in ship agency, ship owning and management, chartering, courier, container depots, distribution centers, multi country consolidation, travel and airline GSAs.”

Shehan Paranavitane, CEO – of Civaro International said Hayleys Advantis will own all the business represented by Civaro, own the entire process, and build on the strong relationships and corporate culture that have been the cornerstones of our success in supply chain management.

He said the company has opened its own new offices in India and the USA, while Haytrans’ existing offices in other countries would operate under the new brand name.
