Kandurata Umbrella Industries (Pvt.) Ltd this week announced that it has resumed production at its Gampola factory, less than a month after a devastating fire completely destroyed the facility.

The blaze, which occurred on July 28, 2025, razed the entire manufacturing plant, wiping out the building, critical production equipment and inventory for the iconic Penguin brand.

The incident was seen as a major blow to the nearly 50-year-old company, a household name in Sri Lanka and a significant employer in the Gampola region.
