BENEFITS

Rapidly growing population

Sri Lanka is a growing market in South Asia, with a population of over 21 million people and a rapidly developing economy. The plastics industry is one of the key sectors contributing to the country's economic growth, with significant potential for further expansion.

Growing Demand

There is a growing demand for plastics in Sri Lanka, particularly in sectors such as packaging, construction, healthcare, and consumer goods. The use of plastics in these sectors has increased significantly in recent years, driven by factors such as urbanization, rising incomes, and changing consumer preferences.

Infrastructure

In addition to the domestic market, Sri Lanka's strategic location makes it an ideal gateway to the South Asian and Southeast Asian markets. The country's well-developed port infrastructure and trade agreements with neighboring countries offer opportunities for international businesses to access these markets.


An exhibition such as COMPLAST Sri Lanka would provide a unique platform for manufacturers, suppliers, traders, and service providers in the plastics and other allied industries to showcase their products and services to potential customers from various sectors. It would also provide an opportunity for local companies to showcase their products and services alongside international companies, boosting their visibility and competitiveness.

The exhibition would also provide an opportunity for industry players to exchange knowledge and ideas, and to learn about the latest industry developments and trends. This would be particularly valuable for local companies, which can benefit from exposure to international best practices and strategies for growth.

Furthermore, the Sri Lankan government has been providing more support for the plastics industry, including incentives such as tax breaks and subsidies to encourage investment in the sector. This creates a favorable environment for businesses to grow and compete with international companies.

Overall, Sri Lanka's growing economy, strategic location, and supportive government policies make it a promising location for a plastics exhibition such as COMPLAST Sri Lanka.
