With over 18000 vessels and an increase in port visits to serve international customers, Colombo is the busiest port in South Asia and links the Indian and Sri Lankan subcontinents. All 20 of the top shipping companies in the world stop in Sri Lanka, which is also the top port in South Asia. The Port of Colombo is the world's fastest-growing transshipment port as of the first half of 2018, and it is ranked No. 23 among the top 30 container ports worldwide.

The Colombo port is top-notch and is equipped with contemporary container facilities and a sophisticated feeder network. In order to ensure that customer demands for speed to market are met, it is now growing and connecting into regional logistics, strengthening supply chains.

With more than 11 communication satellites orbiting above the southern part of the country, Sri Lanka is tied to the SEA-ME-WE III and IV (South East Asia - Middle East - Western Europe) fiber optic communication backbone, making it a destination with high connectivity and accessibility.

A new, contemporary second port is being built in Sri Lanka, which will enhance the nation's linkage to the east-west shipping route and increase supply chain security. Colombo is the heart of Asia with air-sea connectivity for consumers who are searching for garment manufacturers with regional consolidation. As it is at the halfway point between Dubai and Singapore, evolving logistics would also connect with other hubs from both the east and the west, offering international commerce the option to export either eastbound or westbound.
