DialTex (Pvt) Ltd, a trusted name in apparel manufacturing with over 45 years of industry experience, is proud to announce the acquisition of its second factory — the former Leisureline facility at the Katunayaka FTZ Phase 1 — marking a significant milestone in the company’s journey of growth and innovation.
This strategic expansion increases DialTex’s production capacity by more than 50 percent, enabling the company to meet growing global demand, particularly across the UK and European markets. The newly acquired factory is equipped and optimised to produce a wide variety of apparel, including denims, flats, shorts and kidswear, thereby catering to diverse international clients and delivering on the evolving needs of the global fashion industry.
“With this acquisition we are not only expanding our capacity but also creating new employment opportunities and strengthening our commitment to quality and sustainability,” said Managing Director Sean Umagiliya. He added “We are excited about the opportunities this brings, both for our team and for our valued partners around the world.”
The expansion underlines DialTex’s long-standing dedication to delivering world-class apparel while contributing to the growth of Sri Lanka’s manufacturing sector. According to industry reports Sri Lanka’s apparel and textile industry is the country’s most significant export sector and is recognised globally for its ethical and sustainable manufacturing practices.
By investing in the former Leisureline facility DialTex is reinforcing its position in the UK/European market and preparing for the next chapter of its growth. More than simply adding production lines this move signifies a deeper commitment to long-term partnerships and agile responsiveness to market trends. The increased capacity supports not only greater volume but also enhanced flexibility, enabling DialTex to respond to short-lead-time orders and diversified garment types such as kidswear and leisure styles.
