Egg Supplier Malé Commercial Harbour
Malé Commercial Harbour is the Maldives main gateway for imported food, and nearly every egg that reaches the islands resorts and shops lands here first.
In short: We ship weight-graded white and brown table eggs from Nhava Sheva (JNPT) and Mundra to Malé Commercial Harbour, transit about 4 to 6 days, often via transshipment through Colombo or Cochin, in pre-cooled reefers held at 5–8 °C, agreed per destination. Minimum order is one 20 ft reefer (≈ 236,160 eggs).
Transit & reefer handling
Transit: about 4 to 6 days, often via transshipment through Colombo or Cochin.
Cold chain: reefer held at 5–8 °C, agreed per destination.
Capacity at Malé is limited, so we pack for efficient reefer handling and quick discharge, and engineer the load to survive the onward boat legs to the resorts.
Documentation
Maldives loads carry the veterinary health certificate and the full origin set, with packing built for transshipment and island handling.
- Veterinary health certificate (destination-specific)
- Certificate of origin, commercial invoice and packing list
- Bill of lading
The Maldives imports almost all of its eggs, and demand from resorts and the tourism supply chain is strong and steady. Shipments usually route to Malé Commercial Harbour, often via transshipment through Colombo or Cochin, for a total transit of about four to six days. We load weight-graded white and brown table eggs at Nhava Sheva (JNPT) and Mundra and ship them in pre-cooled reefers.
Because the eggs face extra island-distribution legs by boat after the port, robust packing and low breakage matter more here than almost anywhere else we serve. We grade and pack to each importer and resort supplier consistency requirements, and agree the document set before loading, so cargo clears Malé and moves on to the atolls intact.
