As the curfew and lockdown in Sri Lanka is continuing for the last few weeks, A new eCommerce platform named ‘Supiripola’ (www.supiripola.lk) is launched to ensure seamless delivery of essential items and is expanding rapidly countrywide.
The platform will primarily focus on delivering a selected pack of essential items priced very affordably and will gradually expand its product portfolio.
Supiripola is a subsidiary of Supreme Global Holdings and will use the group's resources including Media, Satellite Technology, Fintech, Automobile Network, and Robotics/AI capabilities to make sure that deliveries are made to the remotest locations in Sri Lanka at the most competitive and fair pricing.
Whilst traditional payment methods such as ‘Cash on Delivery’, Online payment to the bank account and credit cards are accepted, the unique feature of ‘Supiripola’ will be its ability to structure centralized buying arrangements for large corporates and institutions, thus making sure that they can cater to thousands of their employee base, taking away this huge burden from the state.
Supiripola will ensure that the large employee base will not have the need to use cash or credit cards, but will use the corporate coupons instead, promoting cashless transactions which is the need of the hour
The company states that the platform is currently on a humanitarian mission to ensure the people of Sri Lanka receive their daily essentials. However, the long term goal is for it to emerge as a Social Commerce Platform introducing cutting edge innovation and aiming to delight the customers with the largest product range and lowest pricing bargains catering the ‘Post Covid-19’ economy in which ‘Savings’ & ‘Value for Money’ will become crucial in addition to consumer health and safety which online shopping can readily offer.
