Fresheeze Jawatta represents the second outlet of CIC Fresheeze's innovative boutique supermarket concept, strategically located in the prestigious neighborhood of Colombo 07. This renovation project transforms an existing structure into a vibrant, customer-centric fresh food destination that celebrates CIC Agri's legacy as one of Sri Lanka's leading producers of rice and fresh agricultural products.

CIC Fresheeze has established itself as a trusted name synonymous with fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, and exceptional quality. The Jawatta outlet elevates this reputation by introducing a unique plant house feature—an integrated greenhouse showcasing a diverse collection of indoor and outdoor plants, creating a distinctive shopping experience that sets this supermarket apart. The café area, strategically positioned at the inviting entrance, has become a major business driver, offering Fresheeze's famous fresh juices and innovative food recipes that have garnered a loyal following.

Design Concept & Spatial Planning

The interior design was developed with a customer-oriented space planning approach, featuring ergonomic layouts that facilitate an intuitive and enjoyable shopping journey. The space is organized into specialized zones for CIC's diverse product portfolio—including their renowned rice range, LINK products, dairy, meat supplies, and partner supplier offerings. Each section features a specialized colour theme and graphics designed under the corporate branding guidelines of CIC Fresheeze and CIC Holdings, ensuring seamless brand expression throughout the store.

The design team worked creatively within the existing building constraints, respecting the column grid structure and incorporating it harmoniously into the modern design theme. This approach minimized extensive construction changes while delivering a fresh, contemporary retail environment.

Fresheeze Jawatta stands as a benchmark for boutique supermarket design in Sri Lanka—a space that combines retail excellence with a commitment to freshness, innovation, and unparalleled customer service.
