New data from Brand Finance shows Sri Lanka's top 100 brands have increased to Rs. 559.4 b

  • Most valuable brand, Bank of Ceylon valued at Rs. 57.4 b

  • Retail brand Keells emerges as strongest Sri Lankan brand ranked

  • New entrant PickMe steers into rankings at 29th position

SRI Lanka’s 100 most valuable brands have increased in value and now hold a combined brand value of Rs. 559.4 billion in 2025, according to the Sri Lanka 100 2025 ranking by Brand Finance, the world’s leading brand valuation consultancy.

After a turbulent 2022 and a year of rebuilding resilience in 2023, bold monetary and fiscal reforms and renewed corporate strategies helped the Sri Lankan economy expand by 5% in 2024. In tandem, Sri Lanka’s total brand value climbed 6%, with the top 10 brands alone accounting for 55% (Rs. 309 billion) of the total value.

The upward trend signals that confidence is returning and market activity is normalising, underpinned by stronger macrofundamentals and the acceleration of digital transformation across leading corporates.
