The export trophies for the fiscal year 2019-20 will be handed over Sunday at a function in Dhaka.
Commerce Minister Tipu Munshi will formally hand over the trophies at the programme to be held at Hotel Intercontinental at 3pm, the ministry said in a press release.
Officials at the Export Promotion Bureau (EPB) said Universal Jeans Ltd, a sister concern of the Pacific Jeans Group of Chattogram, will receive the Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Export Trophy as the best exporter.
A total of 70 companies have been selected for receiving the national export trophy in different categories for their valuable contributions to exports in the fiscal year 2019-20.
These companies have been selected considering their higher export earnings.
On December 29 last year, the commerce ministry issued a gazette notification mentioning the award recipient names of the companies.
During the function, trophies will be handed over to the representatives of the companies.
The export earnings in the fiscal year 2019-20 stood at $33.67 billion braving the shocks of the Covid-19 pandemic.
