Open Market Data Initiative · Sri Lanka

Lanka Produce Prices
Ceylon Markets

A free, open-access platform that publishes daily wholesale vegetable price indices across Sri Lanka's major trade hubs — empowering farmers, vendors, and households to make informed buying decisions without relying on intermediaries.

Our Mission

Sri Lanka's vegetable supply chain suffers from severe information asymmetry — farmers sell low, consumers buy high, and middlemen capture the margin. This platform eliminates that gap by publishing raw wholesale rates the moment they are released by official government bodies, giving everyone equal access to market intelligence.

Who Is This For?

  • Households — compare retail vs wholesale rates before your weekly market visit.
  • Vendors & Retailers — benchmark your buying cost against national trade hubs.
  • Farmers — track demand trends and price peaks to plan harvest dispatch timing.
  • Researchers & Policy Makers — access historical datasets for economic analysis.

How the Data Pipeline Works

Step 1 Download

An automated scraper checks the HARTI and CBSL websites daily for new PDF bulletins. When a new file is detected, it is downloaded immediately.

Step 2 Parse & Extract

The PDF is processed using an intelligent text extraction engine that identifies vegetable names, market locations, and price columns — normalising variations in naming and format.

Step 3 Normalise & Store

Extracted records are matched against a canonical vegetable index (handling Sinhala, Tamil, and English names) and stored in the database with full audit timestamps.

Step 4 Serve via API

Clean REST API endpoints expose today's prices, historical trends, and per-market breakdowns. The dashboard consumes these endpoints in real time via Alpine.js.
