About LankanLoop

Built by the community,
for the community

We're connecting Sri Lankan families and professionals across every state in America — one business, event, and story at a time.

Our story

Why we built this

Finding Sri Lankan restaurants, temples, and cultural events across the US was harder than it should be. Word-of-mouth WhatsApp groups weren't enough. We wanted something better.LankanLoop Team

LankanLoop started with a simple frustration shared by thousands of Sri Lankans living across America. Scattered Facebook groups, outdated community directories, and endless WhatsApp forwards couldn't replace a proper, trusted hub.

We built LankanLoop to be that hub — a centralised directory of Sri Lankan businesses, a reliable events calendar, and a growing community platform that celebrates our culture while making day-to-day life easier for the community.

From New Jersey to California, we're here to make sure no Sri Lankan in America ever feels too far from home.
