BGMEA feels proud to see apparel made in Bangladesh reaching the highest levels of fashion society, the association said in a press release on Friday.

BGMEA President Faruque Hassan said, “We are proud of our garment industry which has not only made an immense contribution to the socio-economic transformation of Bangladesh, lifting millions of people from the abyss of poverty, empowering women, paving way for girls' education, but also brought glory for the country by making a prestigious brand in the world.”
“Bangladesh would continue its efforts to remain be a preferred choice of global apparel brands as a safe, ethical and sustainable sourcing destination,” he added.
Bangladesh has secured a trusted and strong position as a prestigious brand among tens of millions of people in more than 160 countries for garments ‘Made in Bangladesh‘. Years of hard work, dedication, the commitment of workers and entrepreneurs, and continually striving for excellence have made Bangladesh the second largest readymade garments exporter in the world, the release added.
