Pelwatta and Sevanagala-Lanka Sugar Company

(Private) Limited

Our Philosophy

Vision

To contribute to national development through improving rural economy, thereby increasing

the Socio-economic status of farmers with sugar based farming and industry.

Lanka Sugar Company Limited- Pelwatte is a

government entity which is the largest agricultural rain

fed industry and most advanced sugar factory in the

country. Presently, Pelwatte employs 4948 employees,

farmers of out grower 21, 476, settlement 5107 and

indirectly supports many more family members and

related industries in the Uwa Province.

When the assets of Pelwatte were vested to government

on November 2011, the cash flow position of the

company was very poor and no cash/working capital

was available to run the operations. There were many

negative implications to the operations were prevalent.

After the take-over of the Pelwatte & Sewanagala Sugar

industries under the Revival of underperforming &

underutilizing Assets Bill, within a short period of time,

there was a considerable progress has been made.

Main achievements up to Maha

Increasing supplier, farmer &

employee confidence on the

Supporting increased number of

lands cultivated

Attention to on time land

preparation, procuring fertilizer,

chemicals and on time planting

which increase yield by on time &

procurements

MOU with Integrated Sugar Cane

Farmers Organization (ISFO)

which manages 515.5 HA

(cultivable area) of LSCPLP lands

to improve their farmer

profitability and remove all bad

debts by 2014 and reduce

administrative issues.

To become self-sufficiency by 2019

At the time of Pelwatte was taken over to government,

production was stooped till March 2012 and sales were

handled separately and ENA selling price was

increased almost three times from the market price and

most of the existing buyers were left, including some

of the significant buyers. Therefore, there was much

effort to be taken to increase the sales of ENA during

the period under review.

(out of Total funds received of Rs.

Based on the analysis,

Pelwatte has generated net

income of Rs. 658 Min

(19.91%) of production value)

for the year ended 31.12.2012.

This is a remarkable

achievement when compared

to lower cane supply due to

several reasons, including

drought, lower planting

program, etc.

Out of the total production value 81% is sold out and from that

61% is comprise from sugar sales and 19% from ENA sales.

Inventories as at 31st December 2012 is 19% of production value

and major composition is from Molasses inventories of Rs. 489 M

Total expenditure for the period is Rs. 2.6 B (80% of production value). Pelwatte has utilized

funds received from the Treasury as well as internally generated funds meticulously and due to

this, Rs. 579 M worth fixed deposits were available in Bank. This is a remarkable achievement

as in the previous years, there were employee unrest due to late payment of salaries while

taking the burden of additional cash out flow for upgrading and promotion which was stopped

for almost five years, but is pleasure noting that currently Pelwatte is on a safe cash flow

position.
