On 4th February 2020, Maldives State Shipping (MSS) was formed with a mission that goes far beyond business. Established as a modern shipping and logistics company, MSS was born to bridge a gap that had long weighed on Maldivian trade, the absence of a reliable national shipping line.
For decades, Maldivian traders and businesses struggled to secure consistent, cost-effective shipping routes. MSS emerged as the solution, not only providing extensive international liner shipping services but also creating opportunities for Maldivians to thrive in an industry beyond tourism.
The Maldives carries a proud legacy in seafaring, once boasting the largest shipping fleet in the region. MSS aims to reclaim the nation’s lost maritime strength. Guided by a professional and experienced team, the company is determined to grow into a symbol of national pride, with the Maldivian flag flying once more on vessels navigating oceans across the globe.
MSS services include NVOCC, Feeder Service, Freight Forwarding and Logistics, Feeder Service, Chartering, and Shipping Agency Service.
With every voyage, MSS is not only moving cargo but also steering the Maldives toward a future of self-reliance and renewed maritime influence. Built on resilience, trust, and a vision to revive the nation’s seafaring legacy, the company stands as a reminder that the ocean has always been and will continue to be the lifeline of the Maldives.
