Frozen Sri Lankan Food Sale at Lower-than-wholesale Price:on January 1st
Tuesday, January 1st at 6:00 p.m.
The importers of SERENDIB brand foods from Sri Lanka have donated to the Vihara a limited quantity of frozen food items as a way to raise funds for the Vihara. They all have been tested and do not contain artificial additives. The expiration date of most of them is May 2019. Only Konda Kavum and one box of Athirasa expire on January 21, 2019.
The Vihara appreciates the food donation by Shalindra Silva, providing the vehicle (for transporting the food from Austin to Houston) by Ruchira Pathirana, and storing the food at his warehouse by Gamini Watagoda
Most of the items are sold at less than their wholesale price. It means that each of them is at least $2.00 less than its retail price.
When sold, each item comes directly from the freezer. However, if you preserve it further, you should freeze it again in a few hours.
The sale will take place inside the Dining Hall immediately after the Puja, which is from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm.
The funds raised by the food sale will be used for future development projects of the Vihara.
