Built on Trust Since 1979

Sarathchandra Agencies (Pvt) Ltd began its journey in 1979 as a sole proprietorship in Embilipitiya, founded with a simple commitment: to deliver the right products, to the right customers, at the right time. What began as a regional business has grown over more than four decades into a diversified distribution and trading company, built on strong relationships, dependable service and an in-depth understanding of the markets we serve.

In 2007, Sarathchandra Agencies (Pvt) Ltd was incorporated as a limited liability company, marking an important milestone in its continued growth. Today, with a team of approximately 600 employees, the company operates across multiple sectors including FMCG, healthcare, lubricants, tools, machinery and water-pumping solutions.

Over the years, Sarathchandra Agencies (Pvt) Ltd has built strong business relationships with some of Sri Lanka’s most recognised companies and brands, including Unilever Sri Lanka, Nestlé Lanka, Chevron Lubricants Lanka, CIC, Hemas Holdings, George Steuart Health, Upfield Professional, Lipton, Emerchemie NB (Ceylon) and Citihealth Importers, while also representing established international brands such as WOKIN Hand Tools & Power Tools , LEO water pumps etc.. in Sri Lanka.

These partnerships are supported by a strong distribution network and long-standing relationships with wholesalers, retailers, professionals and business partners. For Sarathchandra Agencies (Pvt) Ltd, distribution is more than simply moving products from one place to another. It is about understanding customer needs, maintaining product availability, delivering reliably and building relationships that last.

The company continues to be led by Chairman Senaka Sarathchandra together with its Board of Directors, bringing extensive experience across distribution, retail, finance, manufacturing, hospitality and tourism. While Sarathchandra Agencies (Pvt) Ltd has grown and diversified considerably since its beginnings, the values at the heart of the business remain unchanged — integrity, reliability, service and commitment to customers and partners.

Looking ahead, we remains focused on strengthening its distribution capabilities, expanding its market reach, developing new business opportunities and building lasting partnerships. At the same time, the company remains closely connected to the community where its journey began, contributing to employment, economic activity and regional development.

From strong local roots to a growing national presence, Sarathchandra Agencies (Pvt) Ltd continues to move forward through trusted partnerships, reliable distribution and a commitment to long-term value.
