LifeServ (Pvt) Ltd, a Sumathi Holdings Company, marked its 25th anniversary recently, commemorating 25 years of growth and service within Sri Lanka’s healthcare sector. Established in 2001, the company has evolved from a focused healthcare product operation into an integrated healthcare solutions provider supporting hospitals, healthcare professionals, pharmacies, patients and households across the country.
Over the past 25 years, LifeServ’s journey has been shaped by changing healthcare needs and an expanding portfolio covering medical and surgical devices, pharmaceuticals and domestic healthcare products. The company has also developed capabilities across brand management, tenders, warehousing, retail and distribution, strengthening its presence across the healthcare ecosystem.
This growth has been supported by relationships with international healthcare manufacturers and organisations, including Abbott Vascular (USA), A&D Medical (Japan), Lobeck Medical (Switzerland), Kawaza (China), Beta Drugs Limited (India). These partnerships have enabled LifeServ to expand its portfolio and bring a wider range of healthcare products and solutions to the Sri Lankan market.
Reflecting on the milestone, Mr. Chaminda Bandara, Chief Executive Officer of LifeServ, said: “I have been with LifeServ since the day it began, and the trust we have earned over these 25 years is a responsibility I hold close. This legacy belongs to our people, partners and healthcare professionals. Together, we will continue bringing trusted care and quality healthcare solutions closer to patients across Sri Lanka.”
As part of its 25th anniversary, LifeServ conducted a series of free health camps across Negombo, Kurunegala, Colombo and Kandy. During August and September, the initiative reached more than 980 participants, with services ranging from basic health screenings to more advanced eye and hearing assessments, as well as medical advice and consultations. The initiative reflected LifeServ’s continued focus on improving healthcare awareness and access within communities.
The company also marked the anniversary with the launch of its revamped corporate website, www.lifeserv.lk, providing customers, healthcare professionals and organisations with easier access to information on its products, services and healthcare solutions, while reflecting its evolution over the past quarter century.
Looking ahead, LifeServ aims to strengthen its specialist healthcare portfolios, expand island-wide availability, invest in latest healthcare solutions, and enhance customer service through data-driven planning.
LifeServ’s 25th anniversary is both a reflection of the experience built since 2001 and a step towards the future, with a continued commitment to making trusted healthcare solutions more accessible across Sri Lanka.
