Bangladesh's RMG exporters seek duty-free access to Brazil

Ambassador of Brazil to Bangladesh, Joao Tabajara de Oliveira Junior, paid a courtesy call on BGMEA president Faruque Hassan recently to discuss how the two countries can reap mutual trade benefits through collaboration in the apparel and textile industry.

Hassan apprised the envoy of the future priorities of Bangladesh RMG industry, with special focus on diversification in products, market and innovation in product development, the BGMEA said in a media release.

They talked about scope of collaboration and support from Brazil especially in building capacity of Bangladesh’s RMG sector in design development for value-added apparel products.

“While Brazil has a huge pool of designers and experts, we have huge manufacturing capacity. If Brazil and Bangladesh can work together in developing our capability in designing and manufacturing value-added products which can be exported to South American countries. It will benefit both Brazil and Bangladesh,” Hassan added.
