Our journey began in 1935 when the visionary Sir Sooriyarchchi (I) embarked on a daring venture, sowing the seeds of success by introducing Ceylon cinnamon to farmers. Little did he know that his passion for this remarkable spice would blossom into an enduring legacy, cherished by generations to come.

In 1956, fate played its hand, as a joint venture formed with the humble and skilled farmer, H. L. Jinadasa. Their partnership was a harmonious blend of expertise and dedication, propelling the business beyond expectations. Together, they transformed cinnamon seeds into coveted quills and extracted precious oils, sharing the wonders of this aromatic spice with the world.

The flame of excellence passed from one generation to another, and in 1979, H. L. Ananda, the eldest son of Jinadasa, assumed the reins of the cinnamon and tea enterprises. With a firm commitment to quality and sustainability, he laid the very foundation that has shaped our success today.

In 2008, the proud baton was handed over to the next heir, H. L. P. Ananda, ensuring the continuation of our family’s legacy. With passion and dedication, we continue to carry forth Sir Sooriyarchchi’s dream, reaching out to you, our cherished customers, in the same spirit of delight that he did all those years ago.
