Ramesh S Ramakrishnan

Ramesh S Ramakrishnan is the visionary leader behind Transworld Group, a global shipping and logistics powerhouse.

With a degree in commerce from the University of Mumbai, Ramakrishnan has over 30 years of entrepreneurial experience, encompassing ship owning, chartering, and ship management.

His hands-on approach and deep understanding of the shipping industry have been instrumental in the group’s success. Ramakrishnan’s journey builds on the legacy of his late father, Sivaswamy Iyer, who founded Transworld Group in 1977.

Despite significant visual impairment, Sivaswamy’s determination led to the creation of the group. Ramakrishnan has since expanded its activities and geographic reach from the UAE over the last four decades.

Under his leadership, Transworld Group has grown to a 900-strong team, offering diverse services such as ship owning and management, digital supply chain management, warehousing, agencies, project logistics, and real estate.
