Sri Lanka's trusted partner in hardware retail & wholesale
“Your Satisfaction is Our Excellence”
From one local store to an island-wide chain
From humble beginnings as a single local store, Rathna Lime has grown into a premier island-wide chain serving both retail buyers and large-scale wholesale clients across Sri Lanka. Built on trust, competitive pricing and technical reliability, we work with contractors, commercial builders, dealers and homeowners as a genuine long-term partner.
Our core business is simple: complete, accurate building solutions under one roof. Whether we are supplying bulk quantities to a project site or serving an individual branch visitor, an extensive retail and wholesale inventory plus specialised in-house manufacturing means every client gets top quality on their very first purchase.
Our vision
To be Sri Lanka's leading retail and wholesale hardware network, setting the benchmark for inventory variety, bulk supply reliability and overall customer satisfaction.
Our mission
To deliver high-grade construction materials and select manufactured products efficiently, affordably and on time, simplifying procurement for every builder, contractor and trade partner.
What we hold ourselves to
Quality sourcing
We partner with top suppliers and manufacture select lines directly, to hold the same standard across every branch.
Wholesale & retail value
Honest prices on a single purchase and on a bulk commercial order alike, with nothing hidden in the total.
Supply chain reliability
Essential materials kept in stock across the branch network and delivered on schedule, so your site never waits.
Partner-centric service
Every retail buyer and every wholesale contractor is treated as a partner, with expert guidance behind the counter.
Three things, done properly
Retail & wholesale hardware distribution
At our core, we make procuring building supplies effortless. Every branch stocks a complete line of high-grade construction materials, so an individual client can buy what they need for an immediate repair while contractors and dealers take bulk supply at competitive trade rates.
Select in-house manufacturing & fabrication
To hold product standards and pass a price advantage to our trade clients, we manufacture select essentials ourselves: cement blocks, interlocking paving stones, thinner and construction paints, alongside precision custom bar bending and stirrup fabrication.
Dedicated logistics & fleet operations
Timely delivery keeps construction schedules intact. We run our own transport fleet with heavy loading and unloading machinery, handling both small retail drop-offs and large wholesale site orders straight to the project location.
The people behind the counter
Entrepreneurial vision, financial strategy, legal compliance and international standards, guiding a business that keeps growing across Sri Lanka.

“Building trust, nurturing relationships, growing together.”
Dear friends, partners and builders,
When Rathna Lime opened as a modest hardware shop, it was driven by a simple dream: to serve our local community with honesty, hard work and care. I still cherish those early days, getting to know every customer by name and listening to the dreams behind every structure they built.
Though we have grown into an island-wide retail, wholesale and manufacturing network, our core promise has not changed: “Your Satisfaction is Our Excellence.” To us, you are never just a customer. You are a lifelong partner. We know every bag of cement and every beam of steel represents your hard work and your family’s future. That is why we remain devoted to giving you top quality, fair prices and reliable service every single time.
Thank you for trusting the Rathna Lime family. Together with our dedicated team, we look forward to building a stronger Sri Lanka, hand in hand with you.
With heartfelt gratitude,
