BANGLADESH SPINNERS UNWILLING TO REDUCE YARN PRICES
Bangladesh spinners are not willing to yield to demands of apparel and terry towel exporters, and reduce yarn prices. As per a Daily Star report, spinners may have another round of meeting with exporters to find an amicable solution to this problem. Mohammad Ali Khokon, President, Bangladesh Textile Mills Association (BTMA) informs, spinners have honored a previous commitment made during a meeting with garment exporters last week to maintain the current yarn prices. Currently, most highly in demand was being sold for about $4.25 per kg in local markets, he adds.
Shahadat Hossain Sohel, Chairman, Bangladesh Terry Towel & Linen Manufacturers & Exporters Association, has urged spinners to ensure adequate supply of yarn at competitive prices as they have a lot of work orders from international buyers. Mohammad Hatem, First Vice-President, Bangladesh Knitwear Manufacturers and Exporters Association, hoped that the impasse may soon come to an end through consultation among the leaders of relevant trade bodies.
