Perera and Sons Bakers (Private) Limited (P&S) has recently reached a momentous achievement in its longstanding history as Sri Lanka’s favorite quick-service restaurant chain. P&S marked the opening of its 200th outlet in Nuwara Eliya, a picturesque hill station renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, making it the first and only quick-service restaurant chain in Sri Lanka to expand its network to include 200 locations, thus cementing its position as the largest chain of its kind in the island.
With a legacy spanning over 120 years, P&S was founded in 1902, and since then, it has become a household name in Sri Lanka, providing millions of Sri Lankans with exceptional taste and high-quality products daily. To commemorate the significance of the 200th outlet, P&S Nuwara Eliya was inaugurated amidst a special ceremony attended by key stakeholders and senior management members.
Managing Director of Perera and Sons Bakers (Private) Limited, Gihan Perera, expressed his enthusiasm about the achievement, stating, “I am thrilled to announce the opening of our 200th outlet in Nuwara Eliya, a significant milestone in our brand’s history. We are excited to expand our presence in this new demographic and offer our delicious, high-quality QSR products to the people of Nuwara Eliya. With over 120 years of experience in Sri Lanka, we have established ourselves as a trusted and reliable QSR brand, and we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of quality, service, and innovation as we continue to grow. We look forward to serving the community in Nuwara Eliya and beyond, and we thank our loyal customers for their continued support.”
The timing of the opening of the Nuwara Eliya outlet could not have been more appropriate, as it coincided with the Sinhala and Tamil New Year, a significant holiday celebrated throughout Sri Lanka. The new outlet further expands the presence of the P&S brand as it continues to expand its network in the future. This milestone is not only significant for P&S but also for Sri Lanka’s fast-food industry, demonstrating that the sector is thriving and growing, despite the challenges brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic.
P&S’s new outlet in Nuwara Eliya is also noteworthy as it marks the first of its kind in the region, allowing P&S to serve Sri Lankans in seven of the island’s nine provinces, which includes the Central, Southern, North Central, North Western, Sabaragamuwa, Uva and Western Provinces. The opening of the Nuwara Eliya outlet is a testament to the resilience of the P&S brand, which has been able to overcome the challenges posed by the pandemic and continue to expand its operations, creating new job opportunities and contributing to the local economy.
As P&S celebrates this significant milestone, it is evident that the brand’s commitment to quality, service, and innovation has paid off, making it a trusted and reliable QSR brand that has stood the test of time. With its extensive network of outlets and loyal customer base, P&S is well-positioned to continue its growth trajectory, providing exceptional products and services to Sri Lankans across the island. The opening of the Nuwara Eliya outlet is a clear indication that the brand is determined to continue its expansion and reach new heights, bringing its products and services to new customers in Sri Lanka and beyond.
