Mack International Freight (PVT) Limited, one of Sri Lanka’s leading freight forwarding and logistics companies, is helping to revitalize the local economy by extending its services as a strategic partner on two major development projects of national interest; the Colombo West International Terminal and the Waterfront projects. The company provides end to end project cargo management solutions in line with global safety standards and industry regulations for the complex and diverse requirements of the projects. 

Once operational, the Colombo West International Terminal will be the largest and deepest container terminal in Sri Lanka, while the Waterfront project which will be opened to the public as the Cinnamon Life Integrated Resorts by John Keells, is the highest private development investment in the country, and will be an iconic landmark in Colombo.

The global freight network of Mack International Freight is unparalleled in size, depth, and experience. The company, which has been in existence for more than four decades, is a fully owned subsidiary of John Keells Holdings, the largest conglomerate listed on the Colombo Stock Exchange, and is engaged in a diverse range of industries. With a team of dedicated, well-trained specialists in air-freight, sea-freight, customs clearance, and project cargo, Mack International Freight is able to successfully take on and execute the project cargo management requirements for projects of this magnitude and significance.
