Our Story

Our pioneer venture into modern trade in 1983 was a unique innovation of our company’s longstanding trading legacy. We continued to challenge the norm by revolutionizing what was traditionally an affluent affair by offering products of a higher value for the lowest prices. Today, the retail operation has evolved significantly and operates throughout every corner of the island through ‘Cargills Food City’ supermarkets and ‘Cargills Food City Express’ convenience stores.

Now we are Sri Lanka’s largest and most complete modern retailer. While some supermarket chains focus solely on providing value and others focus on the very best product, we have always strived and worked tirelessly to bring both under one roof.
