EU-funded project bears fruit

Convenience Foods (Lanka) PLC (CFL), a subsidiary of Ceylon Biscuits Ltd was the runner-up in the Small Scale Category at the ACCA Sustainability Reporting Awards at the Cinnamon Grand recently.

The report was compiled by SWITCH-Asia Food and Beverage team, trained by CII India, the accredited training partner of Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) of the Netherlands.

"The SWITCH-Asia F and B program helped CFL by providing advice in implementing sustainable consumption and production methods and in obtaining ISO certifications during the past four years. While ensuring cleaner production, efforts on systematic gathering of data on resource consumption have paved the path for this achievement," a spokesman for the company said.

"CFL has received ISO 22000:2005 certification and is in the process of receiving ISO 14001:2004," said Project Director Prema Cooray.

"Convenience Food (Lanka) being honoured as a sustainable business model is a great achievement for us as we could now see the EU-funded project bearing fruit and recognised as a sustainable clean production company," he said.

The SWITCH-Asia F and B team was partnered by IVAM Uva BV (The Netherlands), CII (India), Industrial Technology Institute (ITI), Industrial Services Bureau (ISB) and Industrial Development Board (IDB). The project was launched by the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce.
