SriLankan Airlines Cargo, in a bid to make available their services at a regional level, appointed Expolanka Freight Ltd. as their new cargo authorised agent in Galle. Accordingly, the new office was jointly declared open at a simple ceremony held recently under the patronage of Director/CEO of Expolanka Freight Jagath Pathirane and Senior Manager Cargo (Worldwide Sales and Marketing), SriLankan Airlines, Ali Kamil.

Ali Kamil, addressing the gathering said that SriLankan Cargo was moving further in achieving its vision of taking the airline to the public in Sri Lanka and that this was possible as a result of the longstanding excellent business relationship with Expolanka Freight.

Pathirane asserted that Expolanka was proud to be a partner of the national carrier with its cargo operations in the southern capital and that the opening of the office in Galle further strengthens their presence in the south following the opening of the SriLankan Cargo authorised agents office in Hambantota last year.

Mahiman Yapa, Cargo Sales Manager, SriLankan Airlines, added that the scope of this process will not only further develop the partnership between SriLankan Cargo and Expolanka, but also ease the hassle for the community in Galle as they could conveniently hand over their personal effects, gift packages and sample shipments in Galle instead of travelling to Colombo for this purpose.
