EFL 3PL Team Receiving the Award for Best Workplace for Millennials in Sri Lanka
EFL 3PL, the leader in third-party logistics (3PL) and wholly owned by Expolanka Holdings was recently named among the Best Workplaces for Millennials in Sri Lanka. This acknowledgment not only reflects the company's positive work environment but also speaks to the overall excellence of its business operations.
Being recognized as a trend-setter in Sri Lanka's third-party logistics sector, EFL 3PL has experienced a remarkable surge in its operations over the past few years. This rapid yet consistently upward trajectory can be attributed to several key factors, one of the foremost being the company's unwavering commitment to the principles of diversity, inclusion, and innovation.
In an industry often characterised by established players, EFL 3PL's emergence as a significant market leader, challenging traditional logistics, can be largely credited to its forward-thinking approach. By embracing diversity, the company has harnessed the collective power of employees from various backgrounds, perspectives, and generations. This inclusive ethos has not only enriched the work environment but has also resulted in a more dynamic and adaptable team, capable of addressing the evolving challenges of the logistics sector.
Speaking about this achievement, Mr. Saif Yusoof, Managing Director of EFL 3PL stated "We take great pride in being acknowledged as one of the foremost workplaces for Millennials in Sri Lanka. Our commitment to our employees is steadfast, and we consistently invest in fostering their personal and professional growth. This recognition serves as a testament to our dedication to creating an environment where our team members can thrive and reach their fullest potential."
EFL 3PL ensures that every generation receives the acknowledgment they deserve. Currently, we have three diverse generations working together, with a dynamic mix of Millennials and Gen Z contributing significantly. Our workforce's average age is 32 years, and we're proud to invest in and harness the potential of these younger generations. Empowering the younger generation while fostering a collaborative environment that bridges generational gaps has helped EFL 3PL become a unique company in this space. The company seamlessly incorporates technology into all its service offerings, establishing EFL 3PL as arguably the most technologically advanced logistics firm in Sri Lanka, poised to tap into the wisdom, energy and innovation of Generation X, Millennials and Gen Z for maximum impact.
Furthermore, the company extends its dedication to fostering diversity by maintaining a substantial female presence, with women employed in both office roles and within the company's warehouses. This achievement can be credited to the company's longstanding commitment to cultivating a safe and welcoming atmosphere, a remarkable feat in an industry that is predominantly male-dominated. Our continuous efforts to create a workplace where all employees feel valued and secure, irrespective of their roles or gender, underscore our commitment to diversity. This approach not only contributes to our overall success but also reinforces our reputation as a forward-thinking and inclusive organization.
In conclusion, EFL 3PL is determined to sustain and build upon its current momentum, driven by the strength of its diverse and dynamic workforce. The company's vision is to forge ahead, leveraging the collective talent and innovative spirit of its team members to further solidify its position as a prominent player in the logistics sector. With a commitment to excellence, inclusivity, and ongoing technological advancements, EFL 3PL aspires to not only meet the evolving needs of its clients but also to set new standards of performance and service in the industry.
