COCOLAND HERITAGE
The Cocoland factory located in the coconut triangle of Sri Lanka began over 100 years ago, as a small oil mill using traditional methods to extract coconut oil for its surrounding villages. As Cocoland grew, so did the community around it with over 2,000 people being employed in the company, from workers at the factories to the farmers working on our plantations. The once small oil mill has now evolved into a state of the art facility, catering to leading brands & retailers around the world.
The core philosophy and values that lay at the heart of the company have remained the same since its inception. We operate under the core family values of Trust, Respect, Responsibility, Relationship, Discipline and Passion towards people and the planet, with the aim of fostering a greener planet with healthy people. The company also stays true to Sri Lanka’ s deep cultural heritage of over 2, 500 years through the incorporation of traditional Ayurvedic practices.
Fighting the Myth
Early in NMK’s history, there was a pervasive myth being spread that coconut and coconut products were bad for you. People believed that coconut was bad for your heart and created an unhealthy rise in cholesterol. But Mr. Manjula Narayana knew that for generations, people in Sri Lanka have been using different forms of coconut in their food and had suffered no ill effects. In fact, they were much healthier than people are now.
