Sri Lanka’s export performance continued its upward momentum in the first three months of 2021. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic-induced lockdown last year, exports were contracted by a record 64.63 percent in April 2020. However in April this year, exports grew up by 183 percent to US$ 798.9 Mn in comparison to the previous year. This growth could be attributed to the gradual lifting of Covid 19 restrictions imposed within the country and globally. It must be noted that the year-on-year growth in April 2021 was largely due to the negative growth a year ago. The Export Development Board (EDB) Chairman Suresh de Mel said, “in comparison to the lowest point in April 2020, exports are up by 183% in April 2021. We thank the entire export community for serving the national economic needs at this vulnerable time. The EDB staff and I stand committed to help our exporters through this crisis in the best way possible”.
