Lak Sathosa will increase its daily coconut distribution to 200,000 coconuts starting today (9), according to Minister of Trade, Commerce, Food Security, and Cooperative Development, Wasantha Samarasinghe.
Coconuts will be available at concessionary rates of Rs. 130 each across Sathosa outlets in Colombo and other urban areas.
Previously, Lak Sathosa sold 100,000 coconuts daily. The initiative will now source coconuts from state-owned plantations to ensure wider availability and affordability for consumers.
