Sri Lanka is a well-known trading center for all time due to its strategic location in the Indian Ocean, which it shares with trade routes running from the East to the West. Over the past six decades, Sri Lanka’s international commercial relations have seen significant transformation. In general, it is a tale of adopting an outward-oriented trade regime, punctuated with brief times when it looked inwards, in order to increase international market access for its goods and services on the bilateral, regional, and multilateral fronts.
Trade and investment are more closely tied to national development. The Office for Overseas Sri Lankan Affairs (OOSLA) can create a framework to entice investment from OSL to make their significant contribution to Sri Lanka’s growth as a central point of coordination. OSLs will gain satisfaction by serving their motherland as an active citizen of Sri Lanka.

Home to one of the Top 25 Container Ports in the World, the country is a key port of call for shipping lines and airfreight services. Further, Sri Lanka’s proximity to the Indian sub-continent positions the country as a gateway to a market of 1.9 billion people in South Asia alone. These factors combined, generate keen interest for Sri Lanka as a preferred investment destination in the region. Click Here : investsrilanka.com
