A three-day apparel summit begins today in Dhaka with the aim of improving image of the country’s troubled readymade garment sector globally. The Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association is organising the summit with the slogan ‘Bangladesh RMG 2021: $50 Billion on 50th Anniversary of Bangladesh,’ at the Bangabandhu International Conference Centre in the capital.
Prime minister Sheikh Hasina is expected to inaugurate the Dhaka Apparel Summit at 10:30am.
Three more events — International Trade Expo for Building and Fire Safety 2014, International Product and Environmental Conference and Social and Environmental Excellence Award, 2014 — will also be held on the sidelines of the summit where participants would showcase safety equipment and demonstrate several drills on the tools to raise awareness among the RMG factory owners.
