Bordered by the fertile lands parallel to the Kelani River to the North and the famed Diyawanna Lake to the West, Kaduwela is the second largest city by land area in the Western Province , widely known for its well balanced synergy of urban and rural living. Over the past decade, the city received growing attention for its rapidly developing infrastructure, and strategic location safeguarded by swamps and water bodies, vibrant local community.
Today, Kaduwela boasts high potential to attract both local and foreign investments in a diverse range of industries. The services sector dominates the employment landscape, where services such as IT and BPO, retail and trade, health-care, education, and finance continue to play a pivotal role in the overall economic progression of the region. Another considerable account of the workforce is occupied in the industrial sector.
Rooted in the historical importance rendered by early dwellers, a majority of the agricultural lands are occupied by paddy cultivation, stretching from Nawagamuwa to Oruwala and Athurugiriya and cultivation of coconut, rubber, fruits, and vegetables for exportation purposes.
The geographic significance has impacted the direction of many aspects of the city.
