our story

Our journey began in 2007, rooted in a simple yet powerful vision: to harness the natural potential of the coconut and transform it into sustainable solutions for the future of agriculture. Founded by Anthony Fernand, a pioneer with a deep passion for quality and the environment Marisha Coco was born as a family-owned venture with a global purpose.

What started as a humble initiative has grown into a trusted name in the world of hydroponic substrates and coconut-based agricultural products. From our headquarters in Sri Lanka to greenhouses across Europe, Asia, and beyond, we have remained committed to supporting growers with premium, environmentally responsible solutions tailored for modern cultivation.

Our story is not just about business it's about staying true to the values we started with. Over the years, we’ve grown, adapted, and improved, but our commitment to doing things the right way has never changed. We believe in working closely with growers, understanding their challenges, and providing honest, high quality solutions they can count on season after season.

At Marisha Coco, we don’t just deliver products, we cultivate partnerships, nurture growth, and empower a greener, more resilient agricultural future.

A Word from Our Founder

When I first started Marisha Coco in 2007, my vision was simple, to create something meaningful using the natural resources around us. I believed that coconut, one of nature’s most versatile gifts, held the power to help farmers and growers thrive more sustainably. Today, that belief continues to guide us. We've grown, yes but we’ve done so with care, integrity, and a deep respect for the environment and our customers. What we do is more than just manufacturing. It’s about supporting a movement toward better agriculture, smarter choices, and a greener future for the next generation. I’m proud of how far we’ve come and even more excited about where we’re headed.
