Success Story: This Maltese Family Run Business Is Celebrating 25 Years

Finding ways to improve the Maltese shipping industry, Sullivan Maritime has always loved the sea. But, one thing this company values more than the ocean is its family.
Ever wondered how the cars we drive, buses that we ride and every bit of huge machinery, get transported to our shores? Sullivan Maritime play a huge part!
The company was established 25 years ago in 1996 and is in its second generation. The synergy of the generations has resulted in a thriving project that has kept tradition, family, friendship and reliability as its foremost core values.
In their anniversary video, Sullivan Maritime expresses gratitude to all who have contributed to the family’s success story.
Today’s results would not have been achieved had it not been for the support and loyalty of partners, clients and other family members. It has not been easy to innovate processes that were fixed in time but with the idea of a family business always being at the forefront, dreams became reality.
Growing from a team of seven people to an entire workforce of over 35 employees, Sullivan Maritime ensures that the lines of communication are always open. Honesty is the best policy and that’s how they achieve this family-run business ethos whilst continuously growing.
Starting small, perseverance, dedication and hard work were all needed to help change the way things were run before Sullivan Maritime. Recognising that, since we are an island, the sea is our highway, Sullivan Maritime’s goal is to help connect Malta with the rest of the world. This connection has developed into a live link for the island. Several weekly connections guarantee a ‘just in time’ service for the daily needs of the growing population.

Looking at the world as one big family is the key to ensuring that each country has what it needs and everyone’s individual trading needs are met. With us being so close to Italy, in terms of geography, it was a no-brainer for the Sullivan family to establish a unique local trade agreement with Italy.
Being at the forefront of shipping and trading, Sullivan Maritime has been innovating and paving the way for the future for 25 years. Not planning to slow down anytime soon, here’s to another 25 years of success!
