PUNE, INDIA – On the occasion of National Maritime Day (5th April), we are incredibly proud to announce the official launch of Maritime Dialogues — a global podcast initiative by Gujarathi Empire.

This platform is thoughtfully built to bring together global leaders, industry experts, and practitioners from across the shipping, logistics, chartering, and global trade ecosystems. It serves as a space to share insights, discuss market trends, and tell the stories that drive the maritime world.

Episode 1: The Foundation of an Empire Here’s a sneak peek into our highly anticipated first episode featuring Ashutosh Gujarathi, Founder of Gujarathi Empire.

In this premier episode, Ashutosh shares the humble beginnings of his family’s business in the 1980s and the pivotal moments in 2005 that drove him to step beyond the family’s road transport fleet to establish the global Gujarathi Empire we know today.
