Sri Lanka’s Coffee Culture

Barista, marked a significant milestone with the opening of its 25th outlet. This expansion not only solidifies Barista’s position as the undisputed leader but also showcases its unwavering commitment to delivering quality coffee experiences to its customers.

The recent opening of the newest Barista express outlet at Nugegoda Cool Planet stands as a testament to the brand’s achievements. Introducing the “Store Inside Store” concept in 2020 posed its fair share of challenges. However, fueled by unyielding determination, Barista overcame obstacles related to concept development, space management, layout design, menu engineering, customer service standard and finding the perfect partners who shared the same values. These efforts have resulted in the seamless integration of Barista Express outlets, playing a pivotal role in enhancing brand accessibility and affordability.

Dilupa Pathirana, CEO/ Director Barista Coffee Lanka (Pvt) Ltd stated that by “Embracing a philosophy of thinking big, bold, and differently, Barista continuously strived to lead rather than follow, reshaping the coffee landscape in the country and that has been the success story of Barista throughout the years.”

Since its inception, Barista has been unwavering in its pursuit of excellence in crafting the perfect cup of coffee. Each Barista outlet is a testament to this commitment, ensuring that every coffee enthusiast experiences the finest blend, carefully prepared by highly skilled baristas. From sourcing the finest coffee beans to employing cutting-edge brewing techniques, Barista continues to set the industry standard, redefining the coffee experience for its customers. Barista’s success is not solely attributed to its exceptional coffee; it is equally owed to its unwavering dedication to providing quality customer service.

As Barista reaches its 25th outlet and expands its presence around the country, the company continues to embody its vision of becoming the undisputed leader in the cafe industry.
