* Launches digital platform to support SMEs
The National Chamber of Commerce of Sri Lanka hails the victory of the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna and the appointment of Mahinda Rajapaksa as the Prime Minister.
It is a necessity to have a strong Government where the Parliament and the Executive Presidency work in unison to reach economic development through policy stability.The efforts of President Gotabaya Rajapaksa in uplifting the Micro and SME sector even during the Covid-19 period is well recognised and appreciated by the National Chamber.
The recent emphasis placed on the agriculture sector by the government is also admirable. Downsizing the number of Cabinet Ministers is also appreciated by the National Chamber.
The National Chamber recently launched a digital platform to help SMEs and the corporate business sector to market their export items globally. FromSriLanka.com is the one-stop destination to source all Sri Lankan made products and services to the world marketplace.
The platform would include thousands of products and services suppliers across the country for over 50 major categories, from Tea, Rubber, Coconut, Spices and Ayurvedic items to Apparel, Gemstones, and furniture or Services such as Software Development to BPO solutions.
The National Chamber strongly believes that this platform would be instrumental in developing exports in search of much needed foreign currency for the country. The NCCSL will always continue to work closely with all the progressive steps the new government will implement. The National Chamber of commerce of Sri Lanka which comprises over 720 corporate sector companies and 1,500 SMEs scattered throughout the country believes the new Government can now easily carry out development and improvements to the economy, at large, in all sectors of business.
