OSL take:
There has been a steady growth recorded by Sri Lanka’s construction industry since the second half of last year since the industry was dealt severe blows by the global pandemic and the economic crisis faced by Sri Lanka in the past few years. The growth in the construction industry recorded at present is expected to witness a steady growth with the ongoing activities in key economic sectors in the country and the overall expansion in Sri Lanka’s economy. Sri Lanka’s development programme aimed at making the country become a regional hub has created many new business/investment opportunities in the country’s construction industry. These opportunities go beyond the traditional opportunities presented by the construction industry and cover areas of technical expertise and technological developments that have been adopted by the industry globally. Foreign businesses/investors could therefore confidently explore the growing business/investment opportunities in Sri Lanka’s logistics sector while also looking at supporting operational expansions of local businesses in the sector.
