Vision: To be a Global Corporate Role model in Community Friendly National Development.

Mission: Serve the Rural Community, our Customers and all other stakeholders through our core business – food with love – and other related businesses, based on our three main principles of 

  Reducing the cost of living
The minimal post-harvest losses coupled with the direct purchase system have enabled Cargills to give Sri Lankan consumers the best possible deal in essential items, thereby making high quality nutritious food more accessible to the masses.   Enhancing youth skills
Cargills has identified that there is a huge vacuum in professional training for the Food industry. Thus the Albert A. Page Institute of Food Business has been established to design and deliver job oriented skill development programmes via a non- profit venture targeting the under privileged as well as the untapped youth population across the island. The training they receive would give them substantial knowledge of the food business and secure lucrative jobs in the sector locally or overseas and above all give them ‘value’ in the job market.   Bridging regional disparities
Cargills has established a direct supply network of farmers with all sourcing of rice, milk, vegetables and fruits done via collection centres located in Thambuththegama, Nuwaraeliya, Norochcholai, Hanguranketha, Dehiattakandiya, Bandarawela, Gampaha/Divulapitiya and Neluwa.
Cargills guarantees every farmer a minimum price which is 20% above their cost of production, keeping the business in line with the principles of ‘fair trade’. Thus Cargills has ensured that the rural agriculture sector is empowered with a guaranteed market and a guaranteed price coupled with knowledge transfers and capacity building in technology
The Cargills retail network is spread across 17 districts. With each expansion project we generate new employment opportunities to the youth. We bring with us infrastructure facilities, and amenities like electricity and water. Our presence in a community uplifts lifestyles and lives.    by enhancing local and global markets.Cargills is adopting strategies such as focused product development in our One Village- One Product approach, to take the local farming to the next level. Having already facilitated advanced technological support, credit guarantees coupled with a guaranteed minimum price and a stable growing local market, Cargills is looking to take the farmer to global trade frontiers
