Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association President Faruque Hassan has said the country’s readymade garment industries have been gearing up for the next phase of growth with the latest innovations and technologies, according to a press release.

“Factories are continuously upgrading their machinery and skills,” he added and called upon global buyers including Zeeman to strengthen their partnership with Bangladeshi apparel suppliers.
The president also thanked the Dutch company for choosing Bangladesh as its sourcing hub for more than 30 years.
