Barista Lavazza opened its newest branch in Sri Lanka within the historic Galle Fort on the southern coast of the island recently. The new branch brings the flavours of the global franchise to discerning coffee drinkers and cafe goers in the area.

Speaking at the launch, CEO of Barista Lavazza Suresh Jayawardena said: “Barista Lavazza is the largest coffee house chain in Sri Lanka with over a decade of serving satisfied customers, both from here and visitors from overseas.

“Following the opening of our outlet at the Bandaranaike International Airport and the new decor upgrade, we are now on a drive to expand our reach and gear up our product and service offering, and this move to the historic city of Galle reflects this focus. We will also open another outlet in a strategic location in Colombo and look forward to new tie ups in Negombo and Kandy very soon.”
