Bangladesh Garments Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) president Faruque Hassan recently met Ira Ganger, president and chief executive officer of US-based Amerex Group, in New York and discussed possible collaboration in upscaling the Bangla garment industry’s capabilities. A new Centre of Innovation, Efficiency and Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) is being set up at the new headquarters of BGMEA in Uttara.

The centre will enhance competitiveness of the readymade garment industry and strive to extract knowledge about best business practices, most-advanced technology and the latest trends of the global fashion industry and inject those ideas into the domestic industry through training and workshops, according to a BGMEA press release.

Hassan highlighted the domestic industry’s rising focus on diversification of products, especially in the non-cotton and high-end segments.
