Sri Lanka’s Most Awaited Brand Recognition: SLIM Brand Excellence 2025 is Now Open for Entries

The SLIM Brand Excellence Awards return with renewed purpose in 2025, spotlighting Sri Lanka’s most outstanding marketing achievements and brand stories. More than a celebration of success, this year’s edition promises to elevate industry benchmarks, foster innovation, and empower local marketers to reach world-class standards—driving national growth through excellence in branding.

Spearheaded by the Sri Lanka Institute of Marketing (SLIM), the awards recognize the human ingenuity behind remarkable brand journeys. From strategic brilliance to emotionally resonant storytelling, the program sets the stage for brands that have boldly navigated challenges, embraced creativity, and earned consumer trust.

With a renewed focus on sustainability and long-term industry impact, SLIM aims to create more than an awards ceremony. “SLIM Brand Excellence is more than an awards ceremony—it’s a celebration of the passion, perseverance, and purpose behind Sri Lanka’s most impactful brands. In 2025, we aim to not only honour excellence but to ignite a new wave of innovation, collaboration, and responsible brand leadership for the future.”— Enoch Perera, Vice President – Events & Sustainability, SLIM

Leading the initiative is Kaushala Amarasekara, Project Chair, who noted, “It’s an honour to helm this year’s SLIM Brand Excellence Awards. We’re excited to take this prestigious platform to new heights — creating an inspiring and dynamic space that celebrates brands with courage, commitment, and impact. We invite all eligible brands to step forward and showcase the brilliance behind their success.”

With a vision rooted in uplifting the marketing profession and a mission to propel Sri Lanka toward global competitiveness, the SLIM Brand Excellence Awards 2025 reaffirm SLIM’s role as a catalyst for industry advancement—and a beacon for branding brilliance.
