Discussing the new branch and the Company’s network expansion strategy, Duminda Weerasekara – Chief Executive Officer at Mahindra IDEAL Finance Limited said, “Furthering our network expansion, we are now focusing on the regional economic centres around the island. Chilaw has a coloured history and plenty of natural beauty, including a glorious stretch of coastline, making it a favourite amongst tourists. The area is also known for its agricultural and industrial activities. This makes Chilaw an area of interest for us, as we aim to target an increasingly diverse clientele across Sri Lanka, as it serves as an economic and social centre for tourists and communities in the town and surrounding areas. Therefore, we believe that by establishing a presence in Chilaw, we are adding value to our islandwide presence, while also helping local communities across the Puttalam District create value in their daily lives, and for all Sri Lankans, through productive economic activity.”

Mahindra IDEAL Finance Limited, Chilaw marks the Company’s third physical location within the North Western Province, alongside Kurunegala and Kuliyapitiya, also significant commercial centres within the Province. The new Chilaw Branch will also help to create many employment opportunities for members of the local community, as Mahindra IDEAL Finance Limited has been recognized as an employer of choice for those seeking to build careers in Sri Lanka’s financial services industry, with the Company having received the accolade of being a Great Place to Work™ for 3 years consecutively.
