Established in 1994, David Pieris Motor Company currently functions as the parent company of several subsidiaries. The group is dedicated to its corporate philosophy of delivering ‘outstanding quality’ in all products and services.

The late 1970s saw the introduction of the ‘three-wheeler’ to the Sri Lankan automotive market – a move that was regarded with cynicism and considered an unwise business decision. The little vehicle, however, caused quite a stir due to the creation of a new dimension of mobility. It was in this backdrop that David Pieris Motor Company was formed in 1994 with an initial staff of 193 employees, following a management buyout. This beginning was built on a pledge to set the pace in Sri Lanka’s automotive industry; a commitment to uncompromising quality and outstanding value was to be our hallmark.

Today, DPMC has evolved to become the leading automotive company in Sri Lanka, with its products becoming household names and earning customer retention and loyalty.

The stream of professionalism within our company enables us to recognize our strengths and use them as opportunities for growth, as well as to confront challenges with a positive attitude. This has resulted in us successfully diversifying our services into the fields of IT, Finance and Logistics. The degree of success achieved in these fields has added value to our stakeholder groups and assisted the group to go from strength to strength.

Throughout the years, the company has experienced steady expansion and sound success. This has been illustrated by the number of modifications and developments that have radically improved the company’s performance. Years of strenuous exertion, driven by a process of continuous improvement, has made the company what it is today.

Thus the legend of the company continues, as we look to an exciting new future with new developments, and the continuation of building on our reputation as an industry leader.
