About Hardwaremart
HardwareMart (Private) Limited was established in 2016 to supply building materials for construction projects. Upon conducting research, the management identified obstacles the suppliers and customers come across. One concern highlighted was the absence of a trustworthy platform for the suppliers to meet their customers.
HardwareMart was quick to respond in filling the void in the market by becoming a trustworthy party that connected the suppliers and the consumer. For this task, we recruited a team and trained them for 3 years on products, services and solutions in creating a seamless experience for our suppliers, before the commercial launch in 2020.
For most Sri Lankan customers, constructing a house was a serious hassle. HardwareMart successfully made building your home more enjoyable by increasing the interactions, experiences and providing proper knowledge to our customers. This helped us to end the era of our customers being misled to take regretting decisions in the process of building their dream home.
Today, HardwareMart has successfully established physical stores in high dense areas where we can serve and assist more customers in building their dream homes. A strong presence in the digital arena has allowed us to create a revolution in serving our customers islandwide. We stay true to our purpose in ‘Building Your Dreams’.
