Laugfs Group to enter financial services sector through Laugfs
Capital
Already a highly diversified conglomerate, Laugfs will now look to
catering to the needs of its Sri Lankan customers in the fields of
Leasing, Business Loans, Hire Purchase, Personal Loans and Factoring.
Having developed into a household name, Laugfs Capital will seek to
leverage on the trust and confidence placed in the Laugfs brand, along
with its years of experience in catering to the uniquely Sri Lankan
demands of its rapidly growing customer base to make in-roads into the
country’s competitive financial services sector. Despite being a new
entrant to the field, Laugfs Capital has identified several gaps in the
needs of local consumers which it will specifically cater to by offering
a complete portfolio of efficient and convenient value added financial
services to power the aspirations of every Sri Lankan.
The financial services sector is one of several identified by the
Group as potential high growth sectors in Sri Lanka’s economy.
More recently, Laugfs also displayed its renewed focus on the leisure
sector with the announcement of multiple hotel developments in tourist
hot-spots across the island. A pioneer in eco-friendly innovations, the
group is also engaged in several other growth sectors in Sri Lanka’s
economy including the Power and Energy, Engineering, Retail and
Hospitality and Property Development.
One of Sri Lanka’s most successful and stable companies, Laugfs
recorded an annual turnover of Rs.21.8 billion as at march 31, 2012.
