The heritage of 90 years

Lanka Canneries Limited is the successor to the Marketing Department, which was established by Mr.R.H.Basset, a British Civil Servant in the 1930’s. During the 2nd World War, many troops were stationed in Sri Lanka, then known as Ceylon. The food shortage due to the war led Marketing Department to supply processed food especially fresh fruit Jam to the troops. After the 2nd World War, the company progressively improved its fruit processing facility at Narahenpita, Colombo by importing machinery from Europe. From the inception all products have been manufactured under stringent quality control and have been sold under the brand name ‘MD’. The range of products grew in variety from jams to sauces, canned fruits, canned vegetables, cordials, pickles and chutneys.

Fresh fruits & ingredients.

The heritage of 90 years in creating exotic products from fresh fruit make Lanka Canneries, Sri Lanka’s leading manufacturer, distributor and exporter of natural foods. MD commenced exporting products in 1992 and today we export to over 32 countries including the USA, Canada, Japan, Australia and the Middle East.
