Lemon Puff will deliver a unique lemon sensorial experience, which Sri Lankan consumers expect from the pioneer," added Mr. Samantha Pushpakuma­ra, Brand Manager Maliban.

Speaking on the initiative the new brand ambassador­s Bathiya and Santhush stated, "It's been an absolute pleasure to begin our associatio­n with Maliban and specifical­ly Lemon Puff. As artists BnS have always tried to associate ourselves with something fresh and youth oriented and Maliban Lemon Puff is very much on target in that regard. It's also been exciting to revive such an iconic jingle which we hope will reach out to all Sri Lankans and give them the same joy and enjoyment as the delicious biscuit itself."

With its remarkable tangy flavor, crispy texture and unique taste incomparab­le to any other, Maliban Lemon Puff is relished

- not only locally but also in 20 other countries with a marked presence in the European market, which has been a significan­t achievemen­t for the Company.

The most noteworthy factor about Lemon Puff is the use of natural lemon oil minus any artificial flavors, which makes it one of the safest brands to be consumed by children. "In today's commercial­ly driven environmen­t where everything boils down to rupees and Cents people take decisions based on money. But we are very happy to say that from a marketing point of view that Maliban does not take that route. We always use the best ingredient­s whatever the cost," added Mr. Jayawarden­a.

Maliban Biscuit Manufactor­ies (Pvt) Ltd. has taken innovation to a new level with the introducti­on of 5 new products during the last three months, a record time, and has further plans for the future which would be good news for the consumer. "There will be some more products of very popular flavors in the pipeline coming out based on consumer understand­ing," added the CEO of Sales and Marketing.

"We have over the years won the hearts of customers all over the country. We are an organizati­on with good moral values and always believe in supplying the best to our customers even if it means that we have to sacrifice making profits. Maliban has become the strength of generation­s past and present and will be the strength of generation­s to come as a trusted brand name that offers nothing but the best in terms of quality, taste and nutrition," stated Mr. D. L. Weerasuriy­a, CEO - Maliban Biscuit Manufactor­ies (Pvt) Ltd.

Strengthen­ed by ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 22001, OHSAS 18001 certificat­es and various other internatio­nal and national accolades, Maliban Biscuit Manufactor­ies (Pvt) Ltd. remains a pioneer in the confection­ary sector bringing taste and innovation throughout generation­s.
