The history of Adamjee Lukmanjee and Sons Ltd can be traced back to the mid 19th century when Adamjee Lukmanjee set sail on a pioneering voyage into an unknown future to Ceylon (Sri Lanka).
   
  From humble beginnings and with implicit faith, he strove to create a foothold in a trading business in the Pettah, the country's main wholesale market for Spices, Sugar and Pulses. Upon founding a flourishing sole proprietorship, Adamjee Lukmanjee relocated to our present premises in Grandpass in 1907, and became a pioneering Coconut Oil manufacturer in the country.
   
 

After establishing the company in manufacturing and trading, prudent investments in property and plantations were made to enhance the business. 1953 saw the incorporation of the Company and the subsequent installation of new Expellers and a Steel Drum Manufacturing Plant.
   
  With sustained efforts over the years, we asserted ourselves in the trade, both here and overseas, the mainstay of our business being the export of Sri Lanka’s major Agro-Produce – Tea, Rubber and Coconut.
   
  The introduction of socialistic laws in the 1970s saw the total loss of all its estates and a majority of its properties. Despite all these setbacks, a gradual renaissance in the affairs of the Company allowed it to set up the only operational Solvent Extraction Plant in Sri Lanka in the early 1990s.
   
  Adamjees is proud of its achievements for over a century, and strives to maintain its position as one of Sri Lanka’s leading exporters.
