For most companies, 2021 was a difficult year. The COVID-19 pandemic has put stress on every link in the supply chain.
As you may have experienced, Riococo has not been immune to these challenges. "That said, Riococo's ability to navigate these trying times has surpassed that of other coco coir suppliers," the Riococo team explains. As a vertically-integrated company, it controls all aspects of their coco coir growth, production, and distribution. They also maintain a vast community of coconut palm plantations throughout inland Sri Lanka. The own raw material production plants and the raw materials from selected third parties are used by their expanding network of factories in Sri Lanka.
To maintain a dependable connection to space on outgoing containers ships in the port of Colombo Riococo works directly with multiple shipping lines. This allows the flexibility to get containers onto ships quickly, avoid bottlenecks stateside, and ensure prompt arrival of coco coir to their clients.
"In these unprecedented and rapidly fluctuating times, Riococo has adapted and will continue to do so. Riococo understands the importance of a consistent substrate, in both quality and supply."
