‘Bangladesh, India has ample scope to work together’Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) President Faruque Hassan today said Bangladesh and India can reap more mutual trade benefits through further collaboration, especially in the area of apparel and textile industry.“There are huge opportunities for Bangladesh and India to complement each other in boosting apparel and textile business in both countries,” he remarked during a meeting with High Commissioner of India to Bangladesh, Vikram K Doraiswami who paid a courtesy call on BGMEA leaders at BGMEA office here today.They had discussions about existing problems in export-import especially in RMG and textile industry and possible ways to address them.They also discussed potential areas of further collaboration between Bangladesh and India to derive mutual trade benefits.BGMEA President Faruque Hassan said: “While Bangladesh relies on India for the import of raw materials including machinery, cotton, yarn, fabric, chemicals, and dyes, India is a potential RMG export market for Bangladesh.
