The Managing Director, Mr. Akmal Wickramanayake commenting on the achievement said “The CNCI Achiever awards are based on how much a responsible corporation contributes towards the economy and its stakeholders in a way that exceeds industrial standards. All of which are quite the challenge given uncertain times due to COVID-19. However, I am extremely proud of this organization and the people behind it for being able to bag these tremendous feats for 3 years in a row”.

He also added, “These awards are a testimony towards Pelwatte’s goals as a home grown brand that strives to excel in industrial standards and of course, being the community favourite”.

The CNCI Awards are a set of strict standards and criteria that organizations need to follow which look towards an organization’s overall contributions towards socio economic factors such as GDP contribution, sustainability, environmental conservation and sustainable industrialization.  In line with this, many corporations from both public and private sectors were assessed and were honoured for their work.

Pelwatte Dairy were represented at the Ceremony by the Deputy General Manager: Mr. Susantha Malwatte, Research & Development Manager: Mr. Suneth Gunathilake & Human Resources Manager: Mr. Harshan Jeewakumara.

The company pushing on its 3rd year at the CNCI awards looks forward to continuing the streak for a 4th year and forecasts more accolades in the coming year as it looks to make its position as the leading domestic dairy producer in the country, set in stone. All of which is to be done whilst giving the nation the highest of standards in dairy products and giving local industries and farmers a platform to stand on both domestically and internationally.
