"From the red soil of Gampaha - grown with purpose, exported with pride."

Freshro factory, Nittambuwa
A founding moment
01 July 2025
Where It All Began

A Decision
That Changed Everything.

On the 1st of July, 2025, a young couple in Nittambuwa made a decision that most people would call reckless. They decided to build a business - not from a position of comfort, but from a burning belief that Sri Lanka's natural bounty was worth sharing with the world.

Maneesha Kaushani, a trained nurse who had built her career caring for others, put down her stethoscope. Not because she stopped caring - but because she found a different way to build something meaningful. She resigned. She committed. She went all in.

Behind her family's home in Nittambuwa, on a quiet piece of flat land in the Gampaha district, a small factory began to take shape. Sourcing king coconut from Sri Lanka's finest groves and true cinnamon from the island's heritage growing regions - they built their bottling and packing operation with their own hands, funded from their own pockets, fuelled entirely by the refusal to settle.

Freshro was born - not from inherited wealth or venture capital - but from two people who simply refused to accept the life they were handed.

The People Behind Freshro

Built by Real People.
Driven by Real Purpose.

No corporate board. No investor capital. Just a family in Nittambuwa and a belief that Sri Lanka deserved a better stage.
