With caring for the people, the planet and its communities sewn into the very fabric of its operations, Brandix has once again launched its blood donation drive for the year 2022. 


Standing as a true pillar of support to the health of Sri Lanka’s citizenry, Brandix, the ‘Largest Corporate Blood Donor’ is expected to donate a significant volume of blood this year too through its inspired people.


With a sound understanding of how critical a sustained and consistent supply of blood is to the National Blood Transfusion Service (NBTS), Brandix has been conducting an annual blood donation drive for 13 years, with a temporary suspension in the past two years, due to the restrictions of the pandemic. This employee-driven initiative across its network in Sri Lanka, which spans 23 locations, engages more than 35,000 employees. This initiative is solely driven by the employees, who donate their blood with the vision of supporting the life of another. As Sri Lanka pushes through uncertain times, the country’s medical system is now at a time of need. Against the backdrop of the NBTS calling for donors during this time, Brandix has once again harnessed its inspired people to cater towards this humanitarian effort.


After having contributed over 36,296 pints of blood since the inception of its blood drive initiative, Brandix is humbled to be the ‘Largest Corporate Blood Donor’, setting an example that runs parallel with the belief that giving blood, gives life itself.
