The largest branch office of Ceylinco Life was opened in Wellawatte recently to better serve policyholders in Colombo South and its suburbs.
The new branch is located in a building acquired by Ceylinco Life at Galle Road, Colombo 6 and has 12,675 square feet of space, with a fully-equipped training facility that can accommodate 65 people at a time.
It will accommodate four Ceylinco Life branch units covering the Wellawatte area.
The office is fitted with energy-efficient lighting and has its own space for convenient customer parking.
“Wellawatte has maintained a steady performance in the 14 years since dedicated branches were set up for the area. This is one of the key reasons to have opened a larger office. The acquisition of this building will be one of the milestones of our 30th anniversary year,” Ceylinco Life Managing Director/CEO R. Renganathan said.
Ceylinco Life also owns the buildings housing its offices in Anuradhapura, Trincomalee, Jaffna, Batticaloa, Kandy, Kalutara, Kurunegala, Gampaha, Galle, Matara, Tissamaharama, Negombo, Ratnapura, Kotahena and Mount Lavinia, many of which have been converted to solar energy.
New branch buildings purpose-built to the company’s sustainable energy model are those at Horana, Panadura, Wennappuwa, Bandarawela, Chilaw and Kadawatha.
Ceylinco Life operates a network of over 250 branches in Sri Lanka’s life insurance industry, giving it a physical presence in 142 cities, towns and villages in every one of the island’s 25 districts. Adjudged Sri Lanka’s Best Life Insurer in 2017 for the fourth consecutive year by World Finance, Ceylinco Life is acknowledged as the benchmark for innovation in the local insurance industry for its work in product research and development, customer service, professional development and corporate social responsibility.
