The National Livestock Development Board (NLDB) has expanded its islandwide sales outlet network with the opening of several new centres across its farm locations.
New outlets were inaugurated at the Marawila, Melsiripura, Horakelle in Nattandiya, Rukattana, and Maradawila farms in Bingiriya, officials said.
The 57th NLDB sales outlet was opened at the Horakelle farm in Nattandiya under the patronage of Puttalam District Parliamentarian Ajith Gihan.
According to the NLDB, the new outlets will offer the public access to high-quality livestock products manufactured using modern processing technology at affordable prices. The initiative aims to improve nutritional standards and ensure better access to protein-rich food products.
Officials further noted that the NLDB—considered a key national asset—had faced significant setbacks during the previous administration but is now recording profits and expanding its sales network. (Newswire)
