Plantation Services
The Plantation Service Sector of the Employers’ Federation of Ceylon took a momentum during 1992 with the Government’s decision of privatizing the Estates. The companies engaged in managing plantations, joined the EFC membership for its sector specific services. Since then, we have been providing services to more than 20 significant Regional Plantation Companies (RPC) that directly employs over 135,000 people and nearly millions of persons residing within these Estates. The RPCs represent Tea, Rubber, Coconut, Spices, Palm oil and multiple other crops that are largely contributing to the socio-economic development of Sri Lanka.
