FEBRUARYASIA BUSINESS OUTLOOK4Revitalizing Asian Market for Global DominanceIndia's and Sri Lanka's rapidly evolving industries are setting the stage for a future where sustainable practices, technological innovations, and strategic foresight will define success. From the food processing sector in Sri Lanka to the commercial real estate development landscape in India, both markets are experiencing transformative shifts driven by a blend of local insights, global trends, and the pressing need for sustainable growth.India's commercial real estate sector is undergoing a remarkable transformation as demand for modern, sustainable infrastructure continues to rise across major cities. Driven by economic growth, urbanization, and the increasing trend of remote and hybrid work models, the commercial real estate market is expected to experience robust growth through 2026. Commercial real estate developers in India are increasingly prioritizing sustainability and green building practices to meet the growing demand for eco-friendly office spaces, retail hubs, and mixed-use developments.Furthemore, if we shift our focus to Sri Lanka's food processing industry, it is poised to become a critical player in the global food supply chain, thanks to its rich agricultural heritage, robust government policies, and increasing consumer demand for processed food products. The food processing sector is expected to grow significantly by 2026, with a strong emphasis on value-added products, organic offerings, and export-driven growth.As Sri Lanka focuses on enhancing its agricultural supply chain, food processing companies are leveraging advanced technologies like automation, artificial intelligence, and Internet of Things (IoT) to streamline production processes. These innovations are not only improving product quality and consistency but are also driving sustainable practices such as waste reduction, energy efficiency, and water conservation.As both countries continue to face challenges related to climate change, resource scarcity, and economic fluctuations, these industries will play a pivotal role in building an ecosystem that balances innovation with responsibility, positioning India and Sri Lanka as global leaders in sustainable development.Recognizing players from these niche realms, Asia Business Outlook brings to you `Industry Special - 2026' edition.
