A transformative journey began this week as Avarna Ventures Pvt. Ltd. formally initiated the enterprise-wide digitisation programme for two of its key subsidiaries, Rainco Industries Pvt. Ltd. and Rainco Pvt. Ltd.

The project places SAP Business One at the centre of their next era of operational discipline, intelligent decision-making and enterprise-wide integration.

The ceremonial Project Kickoff brought together the senior leadership of Rainco – Mr. Fazal Fausz Executive Director, Mr. Faizal Fousz Executive Director, Mr. Faris Fausz Executive Director, Mr. Dinesh Dharmaratne – CEO, and Mr. Mohamed Shamil Group Finance Director alongside representatives from Ernst & Young, the consulting partner for the project. PBSS was represented by Chairman and Managing Director Dr. Madura Gamanayake, Group CEO Ms. Anjana Wijesinghe and EY partner consulting Mr. Shanaka De Silva, together with all key stakeholders from both organisations.

To steer this SAP ERP Project, the Rainco companies selected PBSS Group for the domain knowledge, depth of expertise, a proven track record in manufacturing, distribution and multi-entity operations. For over 23 years, PBSS Group has been the partner businesses call when they want execution, industry fluency and solutions engineered for real-world complexity.

Avarna Ventures has built a diversified portfolio defined by discipline, ambition and a relentless pursuit of operational excellence. Rainco, one of Sri Lanka’s most iconic brands, is a market leader in umbrellas and rainwear, supported by a strong export footprint and a manufacturing heritage that blends craftsmanship with scale.

Avarna Ventures has launched a major digital transformation initiative for Rainco Industries Pvt. Ltd. and Rainco Pvt. Ltd., selecting PBSS Group as the SAP implementation partner. The project kickoff brought together senior leaders from Rainco, PBSS Group, and Ernst & Young, marking the start of a fully integrated, data-driven future.

With SAP Business One, both Rainco entities will integrate PBSS’s homegrown Inter-Company Solution to manage their multi-entity structure with accuracy and speed.
