Lassana.com, Sri Lanka’s leading floral and gifting brand, officially unveiled its newest flower shop at Cinnamon Grand Colombo recently. The move strengthens the brand’s presence in Colombo’s hospitality and lifestyle sector, offering customers convenient access to premium floral gifting and floral wedding experiences.
The new shop was ceremonially declared open by the chief guest, Sanath Manatunge – CEO of Commercial Bank of Ceylon – together with the guest of honour, Lassana.com brand ambassador and former Miss Sri Lanka World, Anudi Gunasekera. Dr Lasantha Malavige – Chairman & Managing Director; Piet De Jong – Head of Flower Division, both of Lassana Group of Companies; Nazoomi Azhar – General Manager of Cinnamon Grand Colombo; and Yoosuf Sirajudeen – Manager-Luxury Weddings at Lassana Flora Weddings, together with a large gathering of distinguished guests and well-wishers, were also present at the occasion.
The new Lassana.com outlet has been designed to offer a carefully curated selection of fresh flowers, floral arrangements and gifting solutions, providing hotel guests, corporate clients, residents, and visitors with convenient access to high-quality floral gifting in the heart of the city. Located in the lobby of one of Colombo’s most iconic hospitality destinations, the new flower shop combines elegance, convenience, and the trusted quality that customers have come to associate with the Lassana.com brand. The outlet will also serve as a showcase for the company’s floral artistry and wedding expertise.
Sharing his thoughts on the expansion, Dr Lasantha Malavige – Chairman & Managing Director – stated, “The opening of our Cinnamon Grand boutique marks an important milestone in Lassana.com’s journey to build Sri Lanka’s most comprehensive floral and gifting ecosystem. This partnership brings together the country’s leading floral brand and one of Sri Lanka’s most respected hospitality brands to deliver a seamless and elevated customer experience. Beyond serving walk-in customers, the outlet operates as a multichannel gifting hub, allowing customers to place orders through Lassana.com for convenient collection at Cinnamon Grand. The boutique’s floral collection, together with Cinnamon Grand’s renowned confectionery range, is also available for free delivery across Colombo 1 to 4 using electric vehicles. By combining premium flowers, exceptional confectionery, convenience, and sustainability, we are making it easier than ever for customers to celebrate life’s special moments.”
Expressing her views on gifting, Lassana.com Brand Ambassador Anudi Gunasekera added, “I believe flowers are not just meant to be admired for their beauty or fragrance. They teach us a lesson too. Flowers bloom, fade, and bloom again. Joy is much the same. It may leave for a while, but it has a habit of returning. I think flowers remind us of that.”
Nazoomi Azhar – General Manager of Cinnamon Grand Colombo commented, “At Cinnamon Grand Colombo, we are constantly seeking ways to enhance the experiences we offer our guests. Our partnership with Lassana.com brings together two trusted Sri Lankan brands that share a commitment to excellence, creativity, and customer satisfaction. The addition of this boutique not only adds convenience for our guests but also enriches the lifestyle and celebration experiences that are synonymous with Cinnamon Grand Colombo. We are delighted to welcome Lassana.com to our hotel and look forward to a successful partnership that creates many memorable moments for our guests.”
Looking ahead, Lassana.com is making plans to further expand its network of retail touchpoints in the future. It is also planning to enhance gifting solutions, enter into new strategic hospitality partnerships, and continue to innovate with the introduction of creative floral and gifting collections.
