Milo clinches ‘Global Master Brand’ title at Sri Lanka’s first Master Brand Awards

It has been a year of accolades for Milo as it becomes the recipient of yet another new title: Sri Lanka’s ‘Global Master Brand’. Milo was awarded this title at the recently held inaugural Master Brand Awards, in recognition of the brand’s continuous efforts at delivering high quality products and touching the lives of consumers through its association with school sports at grass root level.
