Maliban launches ‘Goodness Delicious Paintings art competition

Maliban is a brand cherished by Sri Lankans for generations, with a legacy spanning seventy years of quality and trust.

Today, Maliban is not only a household name in Sri Lanka but also a brand recognised and respected internationally. Staying true to the vision of its founder, A.G. Hinni Appuhamy, to provide ‘the best things to children’, Maliban has always been committed to nurturing young minds and fostering creativity.

Celebrating its 70thanniversary, Maliban, in line with that vision, launched the first ‘Goodness – Delicious Paintings’ Art Competition last October, coinciding with World Children’s Day.

The competition gave young artists across the country a chance to freely express their creativity for over three months. More than 20,000 paintings were received via post, WhatsApp and other online channels, demonstrating the incredible enthusiasm and talent of Sri Lanka’s children.

After an extensive and impartial judging process, a panel of esteemed experts selected seventy of the most vibrant and creative paintings, celebrating the originality and imagination of the young artists. Fulfilling its promise to showcase these remarkable artworks, Maliban unveiled the winning entries in a historic celebration coinciding with Sri Lanka’s 77th Independence Day.

Not only that, but many thousands more joined the celebration via live stream on Maliban’s Facebook and YouTube pages, allowing families and well-wishers from across Sri Lanka – and the world—to be part of this extraordinary event. The initiative went beyond recognising artistic talent in that it was a broader tribute to the power of creativity and the importance of nurturing self-expression in children, enabling them to reach their full potential.

The event highlighted the importance of encouraging children to dream and express their creativity. It provided a platform for young talents to showcase their artwork, making the celebration on Independence Day even more meaningful.

Backed by a heritage of over seventy years, Maliban has set the benchmark for quality, safety, and taste in Sri Lanka’s food manufacturing industry.
