Goodrich Maritime, an ISO 9001-2008 certified major company in shipping and logistics business, was awarded as the Most Versatile Shipping and Logistics Company at the recently concluded Sri Lanka Brand Leadership Awards, held at Hotel Taj Samudra in Colombo.

The award was received by Goodrich Group Managing Directors T Venkataraman and R. Gopal, local Managing Director Taarik Booso, and Director/CEO Anuruddha Withanarachchi. The Goodrich story started in the year 1997, when the promoters of the company T. Venkataraman and R. Gopal incorporated a company called Goodrich Maritime Ltd., in Mumbai, India. The objectives before the promoters were to provide shipping agency services to the Indian trade. In the 22 years’ of its existence, this company grew in a formidable manner, to encompass within its scope, activities ranging from various spheres of shipping and logistics services.

It expanded geographically from a small presence in Mumbai to various ports and ICDs in India and overseas. Today Goodrich has a very strong presence in overseas locations like UAE, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Kazakhstan, Afghanistan, USA, and Sri Lanka, with a cumulative employee strength of around 800 people. It is recognised by the Indian trade as the most versatile and the fastest growing logistics company in India. Aiming to be among the top globally, too, Goodrich today has multiple global operations. The management of Goodrich Group has never believed in having an unlimited number of Group companies needlessly, but always believed in creating additional companies in the Group, with a clear-cut strategy in mind. The highly proactive Directors of the Goodrich Group have been trailblazers and trendsetters. Working on a 24×7 basis, these leaders have propelled the Group to great heights over the last 22 years. This is evident also from the year-on-year growth in the top line and net profits of the Group companies.
