Prime Group, Sri Lanka’s pioneering real estate company, has launched the latest addition to its chain of signature villas – Clover in Thalawathugoda. The deluxe property was inaugurated at Corea Gardens on March 19 – opening reservations to all – and has instantaneously witnessed tremendous success with 60 percent of the property already being sold out.
Several existing customers as well as potential customers visited the newly launched luxury property to experience the signature of excellence at Clover. The dynamic Prime Team assisted and guided every single visitor with financial, legal, technical and general queries and requirements at the event.
Speaking at the occasion, Co-Chairperson of Prime Group Sandamini Perera stated: “Prime Group always looks for the best locations. Clover is not just another housing project, but a venture with modern architectural language. The surreal designs, layouts, colours and specifications of the interior and exterior have all been designed by our experienced, talented and highly-qualified group of professionals. We’re extremely happy – not that we’ve sold over 50% of the project at the launch alone – but of the fact that this place will add new meaning to your life and give you the comfort that you deserve.”
Clover by Prime Signature Villas comprises 54 signature villas – each ranging between 3238 sq.ft. and 4385 sq.ft. – that are spaciously designed in 16 different types, truly representing the epitome of ingenuity. Cocooned in a tranquil 4.5-acre expansive land in Thalawathugoda, Clover villas offer its residents exclusive living enhanced with premium grade amenities such as timber flooring, air-conditioned bedrooms, bathrooms with European-standard fittings, fully-fitted pantries, hot water connections via solar panels, spacious rooftop terraces, and backyards that serve as an oasis for relaxation.
The common facilities include a safe gated community with 24-hour security, an exquisite open lobby that serves as a cosy retreat lounge, a plunge pool with a timber deck, a fully equipped air-conditioned gymnasium, and a serene yoga deck set amidst manicured lawns and lush waterways – all of which make living at Clover aesthetic and indulgent.

In a historic move that redefines rural financial security, Pelwatte Dairy Industries has announced the launch of Sri Lanka’s first pension scheme for dairy farmers, reinforcing its commitment to both national self-sufficiency and the welfare of the farming community.
Pelwatte Dairy, one of Sri Lanka’s foremost homegrown dairy brands, has long been a pillar in the push to replace imported dairy with locally produced milk, saving the nation billions in foreign exchange. Milk powder production is expected to increase by 80% upon completion of the new Kurunegala processing facility, supporting local demand and opening up new export opportunities.
This landmark pension initiative will benefit over 30,000 registered dairy farmers working with Pelwatte. Designed to offer financial stability post-retirement, the scheme ensures these vital contributors to Sri Lanka’s food security can live out their later years with dignity and peace of mind. Additional benefits will support health, education, and safety for the farmers’ families setting a new standard for agricultural welfare in the region.
“This is a defining milestone not just for Pelwatte, but for the entire Sri Lankan dairy sector,” said Ariyasheela Wickramanayake, Chairman of Pelwatte Dairy. “It is our corporate responsibility to safeguard those who work tirelessly to feed the nation.”
Akmal Wickramanayake, Managing Director, added: “We see this as more than a welfare initiative. It’s an investment in rural development, sustainable agriculture, and national economic resilience.”
