The wind in your sails...

Set up in the 1920s, Carmelo Caruana Company Ltd has grown from a pioneering family business to an established leader at the helm of the shipping industry, offering one of the most comprehensive and cutting-edge shipping services in the Mediterranean.

Constantly building on our wealth of experience, while remaining flexible and open to innovation has resulted in positive growth and an unparalleled speed-to-market system, which is key to our business, improving competitiveness and customer satisfaction – Carmelo Caruana’s goals.

Over the years, we have gained an unrivalled reputation in the freight industry, continuing to guarantee faster and more seamless logistics through the close, strong and forthright alliances we have forged with customers, shipping lines and other business partners, creating integrated solutions that meet their specifications.

Despite our success, however, we have never rested on our laurels, constantly keeping a lookout to anticipate any obstacles on the horizon and putting our heads together to weather any storms and develop winning solutions.

At Carmelo Caruana, we have always seen challenges as opportunities, striving to be on time, without taking short cuts, always paying attention to detail and following through.

For the company, the way forward is meeting customer expectations, and 80 years of service mean we know what these are – practical solutions at the most competitive prices and within the shortest time. Our strength lies in our awareness of your requirements, with the addition of that personal touch.

Carmelo Caruana's experience in the field makes aware that no two customers are the same, or have identical needs. So it has steered away from a one-size-fits-all approach, and has tailor-made its response to suit each client’s requirements. Our aim is to improve your lead time and profitability, focusing on efficiency and cost-effectiveness, getting you back in business in record time.

To achieve this, Carmelo Caruana has always focused on attracting and retaining experienced personnel, who can offer varied expertise in the field and continue upholding professionalism.

Today, we form part of an enterprising operation, Hili Company Ltd. active in port terminal operations, shipping services, information technology, real estate, financial services, engineering and developmental licensee for McDonald's Restaurants in the following markets: Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Malta.

Choosing to work with Carmelo Caruana means accessing global connections and innovative logistics through stable operations in the knowledge of high ethical standards and a history of security and reliability.
