View(s):
Kelani Cables, Sri Lanka’s leading cable brand, recently shipped its first cable consignment to Australia. A company media release said that Kelani Cables has a presence in Japan, India, Bangladesh, the Maldives and the African continent. It said revenue generated through exports exceeds 15 per cent of the total revenue of the company and this is an exceptional percentage compared to the other players in the market.
At a ceremony to mark the shipment to Australia, Chief Executive Officer, Mahinda Saranapala told reporters that getting into the international cable market and a massive development of exports within a very short period of time ‘is a testimony to the quality of our products’.
He said the company began exports only a couple of years back and the ‘remarkable growth we achieved and the increased number of countries and suppliers was due to the high standards of our company and the commitment to meet the standards of each country that we export to’. Kelani Cables wants to grow its exports base and take it to 25 per cent of total revenue.
The shipment of enamel winding wires to Australia is to Noratel Group, a global manufacturer of transformers which has operations in 12 countries. Kelani Cables is a 100% Sri Lankan-own company serving the nation for 43 years manufacturing electrical and communication cables, the statement said.
