Fonterra Brands Lanka, Sri Lanka’s premier dairy company, has forged a partnership with the Wayamba University, Department of Livestock and Avian Sciences, empowering the next generation of dairy enthusiasts to become responsible future leaders in Sri Lanka’s dairy sector, aligning with the Government’s vision for building a sustainable dairy industry.

The alliance, formalised through a Memorandum of Understanding, underscores Fonterra Brands Lanka’s commitment to nurturing the future of Sri Lanka’s dairy sector. The primary goal is to offer students the opportunity to engage in practical, hands-on training and research by equipping them with real-world skills and knowledge in modernising agriculture.
