State-of-the-art centre for Galle Ceylinco

Ceylinco Insurance, the largest private sector insurer in Sri Lanka, has relocated its Galle branch to a state-of-the-art new building in the southern port city.

The new four-storey building providing more than 10,000 square feet is the fourth of its kind. Similar buildings have been built by Ceylinco Life in Negombo, Gampaha and Kurunegala, in addition to the three buildings it owns in Colombo.

The company said this is part of a long term objective of moving its 79-strong branch network into company-owned buildings as far as possible. In order to achieve this, Ceylinco Life has embarked on remarkable property development activities in selected cities. This is another reflection of the company's financial stability and customer focus, a company spokesman said.
