Globally, MasterChef is recognized as the world’s most successful cookery television format, holding a Guinness World Record and captivating more than 300 million viewers across 70 territories.

The Sri Lankan edition now embarks on a nationwide search for talented amateur chefs who will face intense challenges to become the country’s first-ever MasterChef Sri Lanka Champion.
For NAF, this partnership underscores nearly four decades of leadership in Sri Lanka’s poultry industry.
Since its founding in 1986, the company has pioneered antibiotic-free chicken and sustainable farming practices, becoming the nation’s first green-process poultry producer.
Its fully integrated supply chain ensures freshness from farm to table, while its retail brand Anthoney's Meatlery makes premium poultry accessible to households.
As a fully integrated company, NAF has set the benchmark for food safety and sustainability, becoming the pioneers in achieving the globally renowned FSSC 22000 certification, one of the highest and most stringent standards in the industry.
Strengthened by HACCP, ISO and national honors such as the Presidential Export Awards, we proudly stand as Sri Lanka’s safest chicken brand, trusted for excellence, innovation and uncompromising quality.
As the official poultry partner, NAF will supply fresh and processed chicken exclusively for the competition, with contestants and judges using its HarithaHari “green chicken” across diverse culinary challenges further cementing its reputation as the trusted choice for both home cooks and professional kitchens.
The collaboration was facilitated by IKON, NAF’s digital and creative partner, which played a key role in aligning the sponsorship with the MasterChef brand, developing co-branded assets, and planning consumer activations for maximum engagement and visibility.
This collaboration is a celebration of sustainability and culinary excellence.
With NAF’s green chicken powering every challenge, MasterChef Sri Lanka promises to inspire cooks, engage audiences, and put Sri Lankan produce on the global map.
