1964

Lankem Ceylon Plc was incorporated in 1964 by Royal Dutch Shell as a manufacturer and supplier of agrochemicals. Our business expansions since have led us to industry sectors such as Paints, Chemicals, Consumer, Pest Control, Leisure, and Packaging. We propel forward with the aim to boldly grow the good in business and life. Our Purpose shapes our strategy, drives our ambition, and reinforces our commitments to progress for a thriving economy, a sustainable future, and an inclusive society.

In 2010 Lankem Ceylon strengthened its position in the FMCG sector through the acquisition of C.W. Mackie and has expanded its presence in South East Asia with its investment in rubber production in Cambodia. Taking forward the legacy of its founders, our experienced team has been successful in gaining trust and dependability in providing professional services to its local and international clients from varied business sectors around the world.
