Sri Lanka’s merchandize exports have surpassed the $ 1 billion mark for the third time this year in September after July, the Export Development Board said in its monthly report.
“I am extremely pleased to see $1 Billion of exports in September. I salute the entire export community, our resilient businesses and all employees in the export sector for this remarkable performance,” the EDB Chairman Prabhash Subasinghe said expressing concern over the resurgence of COVID-19 in the country.
“It is the 3rd time this year we have seen a year on year increase of merchandise exports. However, we are concerned about the recent escalation of COVID-19 in Sri Lanka but hopeful of a swift recovery and a stable level of business continuity. Our businesses must continue to be resilient whilst facing the unknown and must have strong COVID-19 preventive measures in order to bring in the much-needed foreign currency for Sri Lanka.”
