Bring your products to Europe
Natural ingredients and sustainable tourism
Natural ingredients are highly demanded in Europe - not only for the food industry, but also in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic sectors. Sri Lanka has lots to offer in this respect, especially in the important organic farming segment.
European companies attach great importance to international quality standards like HACCP, ISO-standards and GMP. Natural flavors and healthy ingredients are particularly popular in Europe, such as:
- Coconut products such as virgin coconut oil, coconut blossom sugar, coconut butter or drinking coconut
- Spices, such as cinnamon, pepper, cardamom, vanilla, nutmeg and many more.
- Essential oils and extracts of cardamom, cinnamon, ginger or cloves, etc.
Sri Lanka is also an attractive destination for European tourists because of its enormous variety in a small area. By offering sustainable and innovative products including nature, wellness, culture and adventure tours, Sri Lankan tourism companies can increase their presence in the European tourism market.
IPD will help support you in marketing your tourism or export products in Europe.

Harnessing organic potential
Sri Lanka offers a wide variety of organic farming products for export. Besides its well-known Ceylon tea, high-quality spices and coconut products, which are highly sought-after in the European market, are also grown here. The range of organic natural ingredients is constantly expanding, whilst the farming sector on the southern Asian island is an important driver of sustainable development and a creator of jobs, particularly in rural areas.
