About Us
Who We Are
Tradaisle (Pvt) Ltd is a modern global trading house rooted in a rare four-generation legacy of Ceylon Tea.
Our story began in the lush highlands of Sri Lanka – not in boardrooms, but in the fields, factories, estates, auction rooms and tea tasting facilities where the art of tea was lived, learned, and passed down through the Weerakoon family.
Today, we carry that legacy into the future with a refined, export-driven approach that blends creative innovation, strategic market insight, and an unwavering commitment to quality. From Ceylon to global markets, we ensure that every product we trade reflects our heritage, craftsmanship, and vision for sustainable growth.
At Tradaisle, tea is just the beginning – we cultivate connections, uphold tradition, and bring refined excellence to partner with global brands, retailers and distributors to provide tailored sourcing, private-label solutions, and export services across the world.

Our Story
A Four-Generation Journey Rooted in Sri Lanka’s Finest Highlands.
For over 60 years, the Weerakoon family has nurtured, perfected, and shared the art of Ceylon Tea.
This is a story of dedication, refinement, and understated excellence, a tradition carefully passed from one generation to the next, where every leaf tells a tale of heritage and mastery.
1918 — Generation I
The story begins with Alexander Weerakoon, a man of integrity, whose life was devoted to the disciplined stewardship of tea and coconut estates.
In an era when estate leadership required resilience, vision, and steadfast dedication, he planted the seeds of a family legacy, one rooted in respect for the land, care for those who cultivate it, and a pursuit of enduring excellence.
His contribution:
- Introduced structured stewardship to plantations
- Set the ethical foundation for generations to follow
- Began the Weerakoon family’s century-long bond with Ceylon’s agricultural heritage
Tradaisle began in the heart of the estates, where every seed planted carried the promise of a lasting legacy.
1949 — Generation II
The second generation rose with Lional Alexander Weerakoon, who guided the family’s tea estates through a transformative era in Sri Lanka’s plantation industry.
Under his leadership, the estates’ integrity was steadfastly preserved, while the family’s reputation for discipline, responsibility, and unwavering excellence grew even stronger.
His contribution:
- Strengthened the family’s footprint in Ceylon’s plantation sector
- Upheld quality and discipline across estate operations
- Reinforced the values of honesty, ownership, and care
This period honored the artistry of the estates, a legacy that would spark new ideas and growth in the years to follow.
1984 — Generation III
The third generation carried the legacy onto the national stage. From a trainee planter in 1984 to Director and CEO of one of Sri Lanka’s largest plantation firms, his path was shaped by determination, foresight, and expertise.
His contribution:
- Served 41 years in the plantation sector
- Modernized plantation management and factory operations
- Introduced new tea styles and championed quality upgrades
- Led the revival of Ceylon Coffee in the estate sector
- Advocated sustainability, automation, and innovation
- Became a defining force in the contemporary evolution of Sri Lankan tea
This era brought the Weerakoon name to the forefront, blending prestige, modern insight, and the esteem of the industry.
2011 — Generation IV
The fourth generation embraced tea with a practiced hand and discerning palate. Beginning at a premier tea-broking firm, he refined his mastery of grading, blending, and tasting, blending intuition with years of rigorous discipline.
His contribution:
- Developed expertise in sensory profiling and tea broking
- Mastered grading, flavour balancing, and blend optimization
- Recognized by a UK-based global tea brand for tasting expertise
- Brought a refined, modern perspective to the family legacy
This chapter marked the family’s transition into the world of tea artistry, flavour design, and value addition.
2013 — Generation IV
Narendra’s journey began with one of Sri Lanka’s largest conglomerates and among its oldest tea companies, where he quickly distinguished himself as one of the youngest tasters, graders, and auctioneers of his generation.
He later collaborated with leading global tea brands and served as Vice President of a major exporting firm before channeling his expertise, vision, and heritage into the founding of Tradaisle.
His contribution:
- Youngest-generation expert in tasting, grading & auctioning
- Experience across global tea brands and export houses
- Led international private label programs and tea innovation
- Built Tradaisle with a vision for global expansion, premium quality, and modern storytelling
Today, he stands at the crossroads of heritage and global vision, guiding Tradaisle with expertise, humility, and a worldly perspective.
