Orel Food, a subsidiary of Orel Corporation recently ventured into the fast-growing ready-to-eat meals sector kicking off with three masterfully created curries sure to tantalize the taste buds. 


Orel Food Director Ruwani Madushani said, “Indigenous and traditional food of Sri Lanka has an ancient and unique history which has been preserved and kept intact for well over a few thousand years. Sri Lankan food culture is closely intertwined with the nutritional, health-related and therapeutic aspects of its ingredients as well as the methods of preparation. 


This is the main reason as to why Orel embarked on creating traditional ready-to-eat curries which are manufactured under high quality and certified standards”. 


Cooked to perfection, the curries on offer include Tender Jackfruit Curry (Kos Curry), Kos Ata (Jackfruit seed) Curry & Ambarella Curry.


Orel Food selected Grape Expectations as their Exclusive Distribution Partner for their ready meals business. 
“Orel Food selected Grape Expectations as our Exclusive Distribution Partner for our ready-to-eat curry range because of their island-wide distribution capabilities and strong relationships with all major supermarkets and stockists across the modern trade, HORECA (Hospitality Industry) and general trade sectors. 


They are a tried and tested enterprise in this field with a strong track record of being able to successfully deliver and position new brands,” stated Ananda Pathirage – Director of Orel Food.
