In 1993, Sriyani Dress Point evolved from a single store into one of Sri Lanka’s most beloved retail fashion destinations. With eight flourishing showrooms in Kegalle, Kurunegala, Matale, Negombo, and Ratnapura and two prominent outlets in the heart of Kandy, the brand has firmly established its footprint across the country. The company’s diverse product portfolio spans ready-made garments, jewellery, accessories, cosmetics, and modern household needs.

Sriyani Dress Point’s success is steered by a dynamic leadership team that includes Founder and Chairman Mariyapillai Selvaraj and Directors Vasanthi Selvaraj, Madushika Selvaraj, Dhinushika Selvaraj, and Shabrajith Selvaraj.

Sriyani Dress Point is more than just a retail brand — it is a fashion empire that blends affordability, quality, and style. With over 2,000 employees, the company is also a significant contributor to Sri Lanka’s employment landscape, providing opportunities, especially for underprivileged youth, through its apparel factory.

Sriyani Dress Point continues its growth journey, with a brand-new Colombo showroom set to open early next year. This expansion further strengthens the brand’s presence, bringing stylish, accessible fashion to more communities across Sri Lanka.

The Sriyani Dress Point Annual Staff Awards 2025 exemplify the company’s unwavering dedication to its people.
