- Hunter & Company PLC is a diversified retail, distribution, and manufacturing holding company headquartered in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Established in 1911, the company operates primarily across the retail, wholesale, industrial engineering, and consumer food processing sectors, serving commercial, agricultural, industrial, and residential end-markets throughout Sri Lanka as well as select international export destinations. The company organizes its operations across three primary business segments: Home and Garden Products, Industrial and Light Engineering, and Food and Beverage Processing. Its core products and services include: Domestic and Home Care Appliances: Electric instant water heaters and storage geysers; kitchenware, cookware, and cutlery; household cleaning solutions, waste management bins, ironing boards, and drying systems; ventilation equipment and ceiling fans; representing international brands such as Atlantic, Brabantia, Tower, Richardson Sheffield, Khind, and KDK. Garden and Outdoor Equipment: Electric, cordless, and petrol lawnmowers; garden irrigation systems, micro-drip networks, hose reels, and high-pressure washers; professional tree pruning tools, hedge trimmers, chainsaws, and landscaping implements; featuring brands such as Gardena, Flymo, Oleo-Mac, and Castelgarden. Industrial Tools and Engineering Machinery: Heavy-duty electric and cordless power tools; precision measuring instruments, surveying apparatus, and builders' hardware; industrial air compressors, pneumatic equipment, and power transmission belts; agricultural machinery and power tillers; bicycles, components, and spare parts; distributing brands including Metabo, FINI, and Bando. Food Processing and FMCG: Through its primary operating subsidiary, Lanka Canneries (Private) Limited, and group entity Heath & Company (Ceylon) Limited, the company manufactures, cans, bottles, packs, and distributes processed food products under the heritage MD brand; offering fruit jams, marmalades, chutneys, and cordials; tomato ketchups, chili sauces, traditional Sri Lankan sambols, and pickles; canned fruits and vegetables; dessert mixes and culinary ingredients; exporting to over thirty countries across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific region. In recent developments, Hunter & Company PLC has pursued strategic initiatives to modernize its retail footprint, enhance operational efficiency, and strengthen corporate governance. The company expanded its retail presence across Sri Lanka by reopening and upgrading key urban showroom locations, notably inaugurating an expanded retail store at Liberty Plaza in Colombo and rolling out integrated lifestyle showrooms that co-locate its hardware and home improvement product portfolio with dedicated Lanka Canneries MD food outlets. To enhance omnichannel distribution, the company broadened its proprietary e-commerce platforms and bolstered its island-wide dealer and service center networks. In corporate governance, the company reconstituted its board sub-committees and appointed veteran independent non-executive directors to optimize strategic retail execution, portfolio diversification, and supply chain resilience amid evolving macroeconomic conditions.
