The Island Market is more than just a marketplace, it’s a beacon of hope and empowerment in Sri Lanka. Founded by Nisreen Dissanayake, our market began as a response to economic challenges, offering a platform for local artisans and home-based businesses to showcase their creativity. We’ve grown into a thriving community that supports female entrepreneurs, differently-abled individuals, and local charities. With each event, we celebrate Sri Lankan craftsmanship, foster financial independence, weave a tapestry of community support and economic growth.
We provide a prominent platform to showcase products and connect with a wider audience.
We nurture creativity by offering a space where unique talents can be seen, appreciated, and celebrated.
We empower growth through networking opportunities, visibility, and a supportive community.
