Salman F. Rahman, Bangladesh’s Prime Minister’s advisor for private industry and investments, stated on Thursday that the nation’s apparel industry is rebounding quickly from the Covid pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
Under Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s direction, the Government also plans to broaden economic opportunities in Bangladesh due to the increased stability and ongoing progress that have been established since its return to power, he stated.
Salman made this statement at a meeting he had at his office with Andrea Albright, the executive vice president of Walmart. Paul Dyke, vice president of Walmart’s business diplomacy and global affairs, was also among the high-ranking people in attendance.
Salman urged Walmart to collaborate with Bangladesh to produce apparel composed of synthetic fibres alongside natural fibres.
In response, Walmart’s delegation expressed their interest in working together in this regard.
Salman added that a large number of Bangladeshi textile companies had passed the strictest testing requirements in the globe. As a result, the nation’s apparel industry is rebounding quickly.
According to Andrea Albright, Bangladeshi apparel is well-known worldwide. Walmart has been a national importer of apparel for a considerable amount of time. She stated that the buying organisations should have a proper part in adhering to the compliance in addition to the production.
