Development that transcends property

Akbar Brothers (Pvt) Ltd owns, develops and manages a portfolio of high-value properties in and around Colombo. Some house the various business premises of the group, while others have been commercially developed to offer businesses unprecedented services.

A.B. Development, a wholly owned subsidiary, owns and operates the group’s three warehouse complexes, amounting to a total of 875,000sq.ft of commercial office and warehousing space.

The group’s latest property venture is Flinth Commercial Park, a ten-acre, manufacturing zone that will offer a total floor area of 200,000 sq.ft. for businesses looking to move into a sustainable manufacturing and support services location. Flinth Park is a full-service facility, and companies setting up here can avail themselves of a wide range of on-demand support services, including accountancy, HR management, public relations, technology support, goods sourcing and clearing (including export and import documentation), administrative support and legal advice.

Its eco-friendly design utilizes solar energy for water heating, outdoor lighting and signage, and uses rain harvesting to reduce the use of main water supplies. Tenants already signed include a manufacturer of components for Airbus, Boeing and Bombardier.
