The company is based in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Lanka Ceramic PLC is a subsidiary of Ceylon Theatres PLC. With the purchase of its stakes by Royal Ceramics, it will dominate the entire local market in the country. Further, the Horona Plantations under Lanka Ceramics will be incorporated into the Royal Ceramics, which controls 7,000 hectare of area under the plantation sector, he said.
