Sri Lanka now exports more code than tea. Let that sink in. For the first time, ICT/BPM exports overtook tea in April 2026 $146M vs $100M. And the gap is only widening. Projections for full-year 2026: IT/BPM: ~$1.78B (+22.6% YoY) Tea: ~$1.31B (−6.8% YoY) Projected annual gap: ~$470M What was once a tea-and-textiles economy is quietly becoming a knowledge economy.
