BGMEA President Faruque Hassan said Bangladesh was strongly focusing on diversifying its RMG market to boost export earnings and ensure sustainable growth. 

The RMG industry had continued its efforts to explore new and promising markets like Japan and seize every available opportunity, he said.

He also said BGMEA had been carrying out apparel diplomacy and trade missions to find new opportunities for Bangladesh’s RMG industry and realizing untapped potential. 

He made the observations while exchanging views with Hajime Suzuki, Chief Director of International Sales and Marketing at RX Japan Ltd. at BGMEA Complex in Uttara, Dhaka on January 23.

RX Japan is a leading exhibition organizer in Japan. 

Kurena Watabe of RX Japan was also present on the occasion.

They discussed possible collaboration between BGMEA and RX Japan to initiate trade communication between businessmen in Bangladesh and Japan, particularly those who are involved in fashion industry. 

Bangladeshi businessmen would be able to showcase strengths and capabilities by participating in apparel exhibitions in Japan while Japanese buyers and investors would get the opportunity to explore their trade potential in Bangladesh, they opined.
