Hameedia launches Green Mart gourmet grocery store in Ratmalana to level up Sri Lanka’s foodscape
Hameedia, the leading menswear brand in Sri Lanka, has taken the next step towards revolutionising the foodscape of the country with the Group’s latest initiative: Green Mart.
Sri Lanka is in the midst of unprecedently turbulent times, where food has become increasingly unaffordable and access to it, more inconvenient. Hameedia is offering a solution that is both sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective to give back to the community.
Situated at No. 50, Borupana Road, Ratmalana, Green Mart is a gourmet grocery store with a strong emphasis on helping the community by adding value and simplifying the life of residents of the Ratmalana area and beyond.
Take care of your weekly grocery shopping needs at Green Mart, which goes a step further and provides free delivery of daily essentials to customers residing within a three-kilometre radius of the store. This initiative falls under the social responsibility promise of the Hameedia Group’s My Friend Foundation.
Gracing the opening as Chief Guest was Chairman of the Diamond Best Food of Companies Foumi Jisty. Also present were CEO Hameedia Niroshan De Silva, Hameedia Chairman Rizvi Zaheed, Managing Director Fouzul Hameed and several others.
Thanking the Chief Guest and those present at the opening, Managing Director Fouzul Hameed said, “When COVID-19 struck Sri Lanka and the world, next to safety, food was the next main concern. We, as a nation, went through a lot of hardships as people struggled to find food. So, as a corporate, Hameedia looked at how we could contribute to feeding the community. The result of our efforts was ‘Green Mart’.”
At Green Mart, you can find everything from fresh produce to beverages, frozen foods, snacks and confectionaries, as well as pasta and sauces, jams and spreads, dessert ingredients, dairy products, all grocery items, condiments, etc.
‘Smart Buy’ will also offer special deals from time to time, elevating one’s shopping experience and saving you a ton in the long-run!
