Every great company is born from a bold vision and sometimes, a problem waiting to be solved. For Sea Sky Cargo, that vision began in 1988 with Mr. Pankaj Raj Sharma, one of Nepal’s largest exporters of hand-knotted (Nepali Tibetan) woolen carpets. At the time, Nepal’s exporters faced a single, expensive option air freight. Ocean freight was out of reach, and the idea of shipping goods from Nepal to international markets via seaports seemed like a distant dream
“My main market was Germany,” recalls Mr. Sharma. “To export my carpets, I registered Sea Sky Cargo Service (P) Ltd with the government of Nepal in 1988.”
But the real turning point came during a visit to Kolkata Port. There, Mr. Sharma saw something that would change the course of Nepalese logistics:
“I saw cargo—including over-dimensional cargo to Nepal—lying in the port unattended. No attention was given to its safety or proper handling. I realized Nepal needed someone to take responsibility, to ensure our goods reached home safely and efficiently.”
That moment sparked a new mission: why not do the job for Nepal and arrange for transportation and delivery of goods ourselves?
Driven by this vision, Mr. Sharma began corresponding with foreign forwarding companies and made several trips to Kolkata to learn the ropes firsthand.
“I learned by observation watching, asking questions, understanding every step of the process,”
“This hands-on experience was invaluable and helped me build up the business into what it is today.”
With determination and industry insight, Sea Sky Cargo established the first landside operation from Nepal to the world, using the ocean gateway ports of Kolkata and Haldia. This move was more than logistical innovation it was a strategic leap that redefined what was possible for Nepalese trade and set a new standard for the region.
