one of Sri Lanka’s most widespread business chains. Harnessing from its heritage of 114 years, P&S maintains its upward trajectory as a multi-faceted family bakery business, which was founded in 1902 by Charles Perera. Retaining its core philosophies instilled in P&S since inception, the company, today forges ahead to innovate and explore new avenues of the food and beverage (F&B) industry.
Using not much more than an old baking tray and his own ingenuity, K.A. Charles Perera who hailed from the remote Southern village of Kodagoda, baked his first loaf of bread, and then, with the aid of his loyal assistant Anthony Bas, went from door to door selling his products. The quality of his wares soon won him a steady, loyal and ever growing customer base that gave him the confidence and encouragement to set up his own business – a bakery. A century and several generations later, Perera & Sons has enhanced and expanded their founder’s initial business philosophy since 1902, and now, celebrates over 100 years of success and goodness; qualities inherent in all its products and services.
