Shyaman Palliyaguruge is a skilled craftsman who repairs and manufactures furniture, specialising in sofas, sitting room furniture and various types of comfortable cushioned chairs and reclining arm chairs. His business is located in the Hindogama area of the Anuradhapura District.
His business is aptly named ‘Dream Home Furniture’ as a large segment of his clientele consists of newly-wedded and soon-to-be-wedded couples. Having started his enterprise several years ago, he obtained formal business registration in 2016.
Palliyaguruge reached out I/D/E/A/S in 2019 seeking assistance to further his business goals of improving his furniture showroom (a separate building located in his household property) and increasing his stocks of finished goods. He has proved to be an energetic and enterprising person, not only undertaking repairs of old furniture but also creating modern furniture to cater to customer tastes and demand. He has recently extended and diversified his portfolio to include manufacture and installation of pantry cupboards.
