Bangladesh is recognised and praised globally as one of the safest and greenest apparel sourcing destinations in the world, and its impressive achievements have boosted the trust and confidence of global buyers in the garments with ‘Made in Bangladesh’ tag, said Faruque Hassan, president of BGMEA.
He said this while speaking at a webinar organised by the International Trade Centre (ITC) on Thursday (13 October). In his speech Faruque Hassan said, Bangladesh has earned global accolades for the remarkable strides in the areas of workplace safety, environmental sustainability and workers’ rights and welfare.
He thanked the ITC for featuring the commendable good practices of Bangladesh’s RMG industry in the ‘Good Practices in the Global Apparel Industry’, the latest publication launched by the ITC. BGMEA has been selected in the publication as a case study of best practices in the category of ‘Effective management of industry’.
The RMG industry of Bangladesh places utmost importance to sustainability, Faruque Hassan said, adding that having the highest number of green factories in Bangladesh is the glowing example of our committed efforts towards sustainability.
Faruque Hassan invited the guests to the ‘Made in Bangladesh Week’ which will be organised by BGMEA in Dhaka on 12-18 November to promote Bangladesh and the RMG industry.
