- Business
- Kegalle Plantations PLC is a Sri Lanka-based plantation company engaged primarily in the cultivation, processing, manufacturing, and marketing of natural rubber, black tea, coconut, and diversified agricultural crops. Founded in 1992 and headquartered in Maharagama, Sri Lanka, the company operates as a subsidiary of RPC Management Services (Pvt) Ltd under the ultimate parentage of Richard Pieris & Company PLC. The company manages agricultural estates situated across the Kegalle, Kurunegala, and Kalutara districts in Sri Lanka. Kegalle Plantations PLC offers a systematic product portfolio comprising natural rubber grades, including centrifuged latex, pale crepe, sole crepe, skim crepe, ribbed smoked sheets (RSS), and scrap crepe; tea products, including orthodox black tea and CTC black tea varieties; agricultural produce and spices, including fresh coconut, copra, oil palm, cinnamon, black pepper, cardamom, and coffee; commercial timber forestry, including managed stands of mahogany, teak, and eucalyptus; and renewable power generation, including the production and supply of hydroelectricity and solar power to the national grid through mini-hydropower facilities and rooftop solar installations. The company distributes its produce via the Colombo tea and rubber auctions, direct export sales, and supplies to domestic industrial manufacturers. In recent developments, Kegalle Plantations PLC has accelerated its strategic crop diversification program by reallocating marginal rubber and tea land into high-yielding cinnamon, coconut, and oil palm cultivations. The company has expanded its renewable green energy operations through the implementation of rooftop solar photovoltaic projects across its tea and rubber manufacturing facilities. Additionally, Kegalle Plantations PLC has modernized factory processing infrastructure to satisfy international sustainability and food safety certifications, including Rainforest Alliance, Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), and ISO 22000 standards, while deploying mechanized harvesting techniques and precision agricultural practices to enhance operational efficiencies.
