State Enterprises & Utilities: Galle vs Matara

Pick a sector and, if you like, a sub-sector. Every figure shows its source and year. The link in your address bar shares this view.

Low counts can mean low coverage in our data, not fewer businesses on the ground. Official counts come from government sources and are the better guide to size.
