Prima Ceylon (Private) Limited (PCL), a producer and supplier of wheat flour, reassures the public and the government that it is fully prepared to continue its supply uninterrupted, to ensure national food security in the backdrop of the escalating COVID-19 Coronavirus pandemic in the world.
Even in the event of more stringent measures being adopted within the country, with the cooperation of the Government, Prima has the ability to ship flour through its road, rail, and sea distribution network. This will ensure the continuous supply of flour to consumers, as well as for bakeries and other flour-based industries. Therefore, no shortage of wheat flour is envisaged during this period.
The company has sufficient stock to meet three months of domestic consumption.
Proactive measures have been taken to prevent the spread of the virus at all Prima offices and their production facility.
