Founded in 1987, the group works with internationally recognised fashion and sportswear brands and operates across design, product development, manufacturing, supply chain and technology. MAS is known for innovation, ethical manufacturing, sustainability and developing advanced clothing solutions, including sportswear, intimate apparel and performance products.

Working in Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka offers opportunities in apparel and manufacturing, information technology, finance, tourism, logistics, engineering and shared services. Colombo is the main commercial centre and provides the broadest professional market, while Kandy, Galle and regional industrial zones offer additional opportunities. The culture combines South Asian traditions with strong hospitality, diverse religions and four official or widely used languages, including Sinhala, Tamil and English. Living costs are generally lower than in many major international cities, though housing in Colombo is comparatively expensive. The island provides beaches, hill country, wildlife parks and historic sites, with a tropical climate and good domestic travel options. Foreign employees normally need an employment or residence visa sponsored or supported by the employer; entering on a tourist visa does not permit employment. Candidates should confirm eligibility, documentation, tax, healthcare and relocation assistance with MAS and Sri Lankan authorities before moving.
