The government has also pledged to invest in infrastructure, particularly in the tourism sector which brings millions of pounds into the country every year. Opportunities exist in the building of roads and bridges, water and wastewater as well as the development of hotels, ports and airports. Sri Lanka has little experience in
renewable energy and is looking for expertise related to the maintenance and running of renewable energy plants, for example in analytics and consultancy. In the more traditional energy sector opportunities exist in oil production and exploration, and the development of renewable energy sources. There are also openings for UK
manufacturers of food and drink in Sri Lanka. With the strong links between the two countries, there is interest and demand for British products, but hardly any available in the market. Similarly, the Sri Lankan government is keen to work with
overseas ICT, manufacturing and commercial services companies to help grow its economy. UK companies looking to work in
Sri Lanka should consider their options carefully. Most companies enter the market by way of opening their own branch, establishing a partnership with a local firm or appointing an agent or distributor. As with any new market, companies should consult with a legal professional both in the UK and in Sri Lanka itself as tax and legal matters will differ depending on which business model is used. If you are thinking about Sri
Lanka as a potential market for growth, or are looking to take your business or innovation to an international level, contact Enterprise Europe Network for tailored support.
