Sri Lanka’s legendary consumer foods brand Elephant House has won two Gold awards at the 26th annual NCE Export Awards 2018.
Having won Golds in the “Frozen Confectionery and Beverage Medium” and “Fresh and Processed Agriculture Exports” categories, these awards are the most recent in a history of achievements at past NCE Export Awards ceremonies, which have seen Elephant House win multiple times, in multiple categories, over the years.
The Gold award won in the “Fresh and Processed Agriculture Exports” category was a welcome honour as it highlighted the company’s sustainable farming practices and programs that were initiated to support and enrich local farming communities within Sri Lanka, especially with regards to vanilla and ginger farmers.
Furthermore, the Elephant House brand has managed to secure market leadership in the Ice Cream category in Maldives as a result of their significant presence in the country’s modern trade channels and Resort segment.
Mr. Abayakoon also added, “We are currently planning for the next stage of growth as seen by the recent launch of our low sugar variants in the UK and our plans to enter new markets such as Lebanon, Bahrain and Myanmar. It is exciting to see our Brands competing successfully against reputed foreign consumer Brands thanks to our product attributes and superior quality.”
A legendary 150-year-old brand, Elephant House has established itself as a household name in the ice cream and beverage sectors. These include a wide range of brands such as longtime favorites Cream Soda, Elephant House Ginger Beer (EGB), Necto, Orange Crush, as well as the newer Lemoki, fruity FitO and even Elephant House’s recently launched milk and bottled water brands, in the beverage category. Backed by Elephant House’s trusted range of wholesome and creamy ice creams, the premium Imorich and youthful WonderCones and WonderBars, different flavor quick-bite Cups, sweet treats MajorMax and Necto Ice Lolly, and latest additions WonderBerry and ChocShock, in the Ice Cream category. Synonymous with wholesome goodness, Elephant House will continue to establish the longstanding tradition and culture of excellence that has truly won the hearts of all Sri Lankans, with the hope of being a truly global brand for all to enjoy.
