PANDIASIA maintains a small office in Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh. Dhaka is the seat of the Admiralty Court of Bangladesh, and also has an ICD for containers and a river port in Pangaon.

The Dhaka office handles legal work and liaison with various parties including government authorities, insurance companies, head offices of international organisations, and shipping companies.

PANDIASIA’s Chittagong office serves as the main office in Bangladesh. Chittagong is the main seaport in Bangladesh, handling roughly 90% of the country’s export and 70% of the country’s imports.

PANDIASIA started operating in Khulna in 2013. Mongla, the second port of Bangladesh is in Khulna. The port is expected to grow in importance as the infrastructure linking the port and Dhaka, the capital, is improved. Mongla is a major exporting port for frozen seafood and is the main gateway to western Bangladesh. The port handles considerable volume of imports of bagged fertilizer and bulk wheat. These cargoes often give rise to claim situations because of stevedore damage to bags and the port’s practice of discharging bulk wheat. The navigational challenge is also challenging as there are shallow banks in the river and strong cross current at the river mouth.
