“It has always been our vision to make computers affordable to every Sri Lankan. By setting up a local manufacturing facility our focus was to provide computers and laptops that would be more customized to suit the local user’s needs. This is the reason we have been successful in providing technology that is just right for an everyday computer user, whilst ensuring we make it affordable for an ordinary citizen,” said Shafraz Hamzadeen, CEO EZY Holdings. |
