In the decade up to 2019, its average rate of growth of real GDP was 5.25%. The service sector makes up nearly 60% of the country’s economy, the industrial sector makes up over 25% and agriculture accounts for just under 10%. Tourism is one of the main industries in Sri Lanka. The pandemic meant that the revenue earned by the industry fell dramatically but is expected to recover. Sri Lanka is the world’s fourth largest producer and the third largest exporter of tea. Textiles is another important industry, accounting for over a third of the country’s merchandise export revenue. 5 10 Source: News reports, February 2022.
