BGMEA President Faruque Hassan said the existing business situation has created opportunities for Bangladesh and India to drive development in the RMG and textile industry in both countries.
“Bangladesh is seeking to harness the potential of Man-Made fibre (MMF) apparel export as the demand for clothing made of synthetic materials is rising globally. On the other hand, India has a big textile sector having a considerable capacity of supplying Man-Made fibre and blended textile products while the country is also a promising destination for Bangladeshi RMG exports,” he said.
The BGMEA chief came up with the observations while speaking at a meeting with Dhiraj Raichand Shah, chairman of The Synthetic & Rayon Textiles Export Promotion Council (SRTEPC), reads a press release.

In the meeting, Faruque Hassan laid emphasis on increasing more direct business interactions between Bangladeshi RMG exporters and Indian textile products suppliers to strengthen the reciprocal relationship that would be useful for both sides.
