FROM THE DILMAH FAMILY
We are a family business, founded on family values. That means we do not compromise on the promise that our Founder Merrill J. Fernando made in 1950 when he started on a mission for quality, goodness and kindness to which he devoted a lifetime.
Our uncompromising commitment is to offering our customers only the world's finest Ceylon Cinnamon; grown, harvested, and perfected by artisans, with kindness to people & nature.
We fulfill our desire to be kind in all that we do through the Merrill J. Fernando Foundation (MJF Foundation) and Dilmah Conservation. We offer kindness to Nature in our efforts at restoring degraded ecosystems, conserving the biodiversity that makes Sri Lanka one of 36 biodiversity hotspots in the world.
