Horton Group brings together a portfolio of companies and investments in public and private sectors, targeting Sri Lanka’s most lucrative and emerging markets
At Horton, we are currently expanding our footprint in the building materials and allied industries, specifically targeting cement manufacturing. Our established presence in this sector, combined with strategic plans to diversify into downstream operations—including cement roofing, concrete blocks, and ready-mix concrete—positions us well within a growing market that has shown resilience and demand.
We employ a rigorous and opportunistic investment strategy aimed at identifying privately held businesses that boast strong product portfolios and exhibit high internal rates of return. By leveraging our industry expertise and comprehensive market analysis, we ensure that our investments not only align with strategic objectives but also significantly mitigate risk.
Our companies are driven by a small but highly motivated team, each member bringing extensive experience from leading international firms such as JP Morgan Chase & Co, HSBC Bank, Kreston & Co, and Walkers PLC. The managerial team’s depth of knowledge in finance, operations, and strategic investments equips us with the necessary insights to make informed decisions that foster growth and stability.
At Horton, we are committed to transparency and financial prudence, with a detailed approach to capital management that emphasizes the growth of our investment portfolio. Furthermore, the building materials industry is projected to experience sustained demand driven by urbanization and infrastructure development—creating a favorable environment for our expansion initiatives.
