Singha Cement felicitates employees

Singha Cement (Pvt) Limited, marketers of the popular Singha cement brand, and a member of the Italcementi Group which is among the five largest producers of cement in the world, based in Italy, felicitated employees who have been with the Company for over ten years . The Italcementi Group is also one of Italy's ten largest industries, with operations in 22 countries and 53 cement plants worldwide.

The employees who have completed ten years service were Mrs. Niluka Damayanthi, Mr. Dickman Upali and Mr. Ruwan Pushpakumara, all of whom received generous cash rewards as well as a valuable wristwatch from Managing Director, Colin Nelson.

"We take this opportunity to thank our employees for their long term service and contribution. More than 30% of our employees have completed ten years of service so far and we are so proud of having a loyal and a committed workforce. Whilst we appreciate our employees, we wish to thank our customers for their tremendous contribution towards the growth of Singha Cement" said Nelson.

Another new development for the company is the construction of a multimillion dollar new state of the art cement terminal which is due to be completed next year. As a result of the new expansion, the Company will double its existing capacity. "The reason for this expansion is to meet the high demand for Singha cement in the country as well as to provide an enhanced, quality service to our customers".

Singha Cement currently operates and maintains a land based terminal at Peliyagoda equipped with the necessary technology to receive and handle both bulk as well as bagged cement in the most efficient manner.
