MISSION

Culture and Values

Professionalism in everything we do

Our work ethics determine the quality of our work, and the mutual respect we foster among us. MPL staffs take pride in the work they do. From the smallest, menial task, to multidisciplinary, inter-departmental work, and work carried out with external agencies, we do what we do with care, commitment and a duty of urgency.

We become better everyday

We are driven by our constant need to analyze our performance, monitor it, and improve it in every aspect possible. We measure how we do things, how much resources we consume and its output to understand what can be improved. We don’t settle for good, better or best; because there is always room for improvement, and every day is another opportunity to ask ourselves, how we will become better today.

Your safety, our priority

We work in an environment safe for our peers, our Clients and the general public. Nothings more important to us than the safety and well-being of our staffs, and the security of the cargo we handle. If you feel that you are not safe, we shall not ask you to compromise your mental and physical wellbeing.

You can count on us

We know that you depend on our Port. The wellbeing of our island communities, food security, and the stability of markets and industries depend on us getting our job done. We can go home after a busy day at work, knowing that we have done our part to keep our communities, safe, resilient and prosperous through our role of handling the critical cargo, reliably and safely, on time.

United, we are Stronger

We unite in our commitment to our duties to our Clients, community, and the people of the Maldives. We will answer every call together, as a family, to carry each other through thick and thin. We respect each individual differences; but we know that collectively, we can overcome every obstacle and challenge that may come our way.

Go Green!

We have a moral duty to ensure that we preserve this earth for the generations to come. We do this consciously, by driving to adapt operational policies, such as mandating the usage of low-sculpture fuels, to using shore-side power, and adapting infrastructures that allow operation of lean enterprises.
