Hela Clothing, a leading end-to-end apparel supply chain solutions provider in Sri Lanka, has received the Silver Award for Workforce Enablement at the recently concluded Digital Excellence Awards.
The award comes at a time when the company has embarked on a complete digital transformation to support its global growth while future-proofing the business.
Organised by the Federation of Information Technology Industry Sri Lanka (FITIS), the Digital Excellence Awards recognizes the achievements of organizations that have successfully planned and executed their digital transformation through migrating enterprises from Industry 3.0 to 4.0.

Since its launch the company has achieved a number of key benefits which include real time data availability and digital empowerment of the workforce. The initial roll-out focused on Hela’s 9 locations in Sri Lanka andfrom January 2022 the app will be made available to their teams across Africa as well.

It underscores the fact that our digital transformation journey is heading in the right direction and further strengthens our resolve to see it through in a timely manner.”
