“The HNB Singithi accounts were launched more than 15 years ago and has today grown to serve our loyal minor account holders the best value for their savings. 

We have always been on the lookout for a partner with similar experience and commitment to the wellbeing of our children. As such, we reached out to Swadeshi, which has an untainted history of manufacturing products that directly impact the health and wellness of both the baby and the mother. 

While our main goal is to ensure our minor account holders have the necessary backing for a financially secure future, we wish to safeguard their health and wellbeing. 

As such, we are delighted to partner with Swadeshi, which is a trusted brand in the market, to offer Kohomba Baby products as gifts to new parents on one of the happiest occasions in their lives,” HNB Deputy General Manager- Retail and SME Banking, Sanjay Wijemanne, said. 

“As an industry leader in herbal products, we have invested heavily in the research and development. Our products are natural and gentle for newborn babies as we have used the most time-tested herbal ingredients available to offer customers products with a proven track record. 

As such, we believe that our partnership will add value to the HNB Singithi Kirikatiyo account, which was also launched solely for newborn babies, and look forward to the decade long partnership with the bank to celebrate alongside new parents on their special day,” Swadeshi Industrial Works PLC Chief Executive Officer, Amila Udawatte said. 

 The gift pack will include herbal products from Swadeshi’s range of Kohomba Baby care products manufactured with Kohomba (neem/margosa) that naturally protects the baby’s skin from germs and provide essential nourishment.
