Abhimana Card will help us to serve the LSL consumer better: Rishad

Sri Lanka’s first State-run FMCG Loyalty Card will be launched today, 8 November. The largest retail supermarket chain in the country, Lanka Sathosa Ltd. (LSL) is embarking on this major initiative to expand its customer base while meeting the competition.

“Our work is aimed at giving the best to the local consumer while facing competition,” said Minister of Industry, Commerce, Resettlement of Protracted Displaced Persons, Co-operative Development, Skills Development and Vocational Training Rishad Bathiudeen on 5 November in Colombo.

Bathiudeen, under whom Lanka Sathosa functions, was in discussion with his officials at the Ministry in Colombo 3 ahead of the launch event of the LSL ‘Abhimana’ loyalty card today in Battaramulla.

“Lanka Sathosa Ltd. (LSL) expanded its island-wide branch network to 423 and has become the largest supermarket chain in Sri Lanka today. LSL Loyalty Card holders will be able to use the card in any branch, with many benefits including discounts from the 423 outlets,” said Bathiudeen. “The ‘Abhimana’ card is Sri Lanka’s first ever Government-owned Consumer Loyalty Card in the FMCG sector and I commend Lanka Sathosa staff and its sales and marketing teams for their work on it.”

A nominal subscription fee is to be levied when the Abhimana Card is first issued to the consumer, while it is to be issued free of charge to pensioners, Government employees and military personnel.
