We are a homegrown Sri Lankan brand and our local customers have always appreciated and supported our passion and efforts to uplift the men’s fashion industry in the country. We remain dedicated to offering original and world-class menswear that is of international repute. It took us a lot of time to get to where we are today and we are proud of the growth that we have achieved over the years.”

The Chief Guest at this occasion, Minister of Sports Dayasiri Jayasekera, endorsing the brand of Hameedia stated, “I very rarely shop for clothes. Once in a blue moon, if I decide to go shopping, the brand name that comes to my mind is Hameedia. Even for this occasion, as I address you all, the outfit I’m wearing was tailored by Hameedia of which I have been a customer for the past 15 years and this is solely because of their high quality clothing and exceptional service. With the Avurudu season around the corner, I wish you all a very Happy and Prosperous New Year and I wish Hameed and his team all the very best in all their future endeavours.”
