I am excited to see Cargills Ceylon coming forward to support us in this national effort. LankaQR is one such initiative that we have conceptualised with the support of the Central Bank and LankaClear. A notable fact is that LankaQR was entirely developed by using Sri Lankan expertise.”

SMEs are the engine of growth in the country and it is important for us to give them all the resources and support necessary to achieve their fullest potential. I thank Cargills Ceylon for joining hands with us to take this technology to its large, island wide customer base.”
