In the intricate tapestry of the dairy industry, Leoan Milk's journey unfolds as a riveting tale of innovation, dedication, and unwavering commitment. Our story commenced in 2006 with the establishment of SDDC, a transformative venture that laid the foundation for our ascent.
The Genesis: A Commitment to Quality
From the outset, our mission was clear: redefine freshness and excellence. Pioneering a pricing model that empowered farmers, we became the backbone for 17,000 farmers and 244 milk societies by 2012, spanning regions like Anuradhapura, Mathale, Kilinochchi, and the North Western Province. Strategic partnerships with industry titans like Fontera, Cargills, and Pelawaththa marked a pivotal moment in our evolution.
Revolutionizing Freshness: Innovative Practices
Innovation became our guiding force as we embraced cutting-edge technology to revolutionize fresh milk production. Overcoming challenges, we threaded through villages around Colombo, pioneering a village-to-village program that connected communities and ensured uninterrupted liquid milk distribution. Our collaboration with the governments of France and Sri Lanka resulted in the joint acquisition of five milk factories, marking a monumental leap in enhancing liquid milk accessibility.
A Resilient Spirit: Triumph over Challenges
The year 2018 stood as a testament to our commitment to progress, with one factory valued at 480 million. The Small Dairy Factory emerged as a symbol of resilience, eventually finding its place under our ownership. Despite delays, our unwavering spirit prevailed, and operations commenced on 27.01.2023.
Enter 'Leoan': A Brand of Excellence
'Leoan' emerged as more than a brand – a symbol of quality and trust. Our diverse product portfolio, including sterilized milk and liquid milk, attests to our dedication to delivering high-quality dairy products. Looking ahead, we pledge to contribute to child nutrition, providing highly nutritious milk to main schools in Kurunegala city from the first quarter of 2024.
Through the SDDC Organization: Uplifting Dairy Farmers
Through the SDDC organization, we actively engage in uplifting dairy farmers by offering competitive prices for their milk. Join us on this extraordinary journey as we continue to redefine the dairy landscape, one innovation at a time.
Conclusion: Shaping the Future of Freshness
As we reflect on our business history, Leoan Milk stands as a beacon of freshness, innovation, and community impact. Our unwavering commitment to quality has propelled us to new heights, and we invite you to join us on this dynamic journey into the future of dairy excellence.
