Testimonials from Industry Leaders
Mr. Tipu Munshi, MP
Minister, Ministry of Commerce
Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh
I congratulate Redcarpet365 Ltd for organizing 5th Edition of BIGTEX - Bangladesh Int’l Garment & Textile Machinery Expo, Bangladesh Int’l Fabric &
Yarn Expo, Bangladesh Int’l Printing, Packaging & Signage Expo and Bangladesh Int’l Dyes, Pigments & Chemicals Expo, from 07 to 10 November 2019
at International Convention City Bashundhara, Dhaka – Bangladesh. The back bone of Bangladesh’s economic growth is Apparel Sector and the
networking platforms like exhibitions are very important to uphold country’s growth, as well as economy.
Under the dynamic leadership of our Hon’ble Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, Bangladesh is likely to set the apparel export target at $37.42 billion for
Fiscal Year 2019-20, with a 7.03% growth in export earnings. To achieve this target we need to focus more on value added, high-end apparel items rather
than basic, traditional products to make the business sustainable throughout the fierce competition in the global garment trade.
Keeping the above in concern, there is no alternative of Exhibitions on these sectors & I, heartily welcome all participants & stakeholders approach to
involve with BIGTEX as well as Bangladesh’s apparel industry for enhancing the manufacturing strength with new developed technology.
I am very glad to know that, Redcarpet365 Ltd is organizing 5th edition of BIGTEX, held from 07 to 10 November 2019 at ICCB,
Dhaka. Garment & Textile machinery, equipment, technology & accessories manufacturer, dealers & suppliers from home &
abroad have participated at this comprehensive exhibition. Targeting the entire Textile, Garment & Apparel industry of
Bangladesh, they have 3 more concurrent exhibitions Bangladesh Int’l Print, Pack & Sign Expo, Bangladesh Int’l Fabric & Yarn
Expo & Bangladesh Int’l Dyes, Pigments and Chemicals Expo.
Rising garment shipments to new and emerging Asian markets such as India, China, Korea and Japan have also contributed to the
higher earnings. But to keep this growth in continuation basis the Industry needs proper updated and more sustainable
Technology, Machinery, Raw Materials, Yarn, Fabric, Dyes & Chemicals in regular basis.
In this fearless competition in global apparel consumption, organizing this kind of exhibitions are very important for Bangladesh
to reach the certain goal and explore new markets and diversify the production.
At present, there is an approximate US$ 210 billion valued knitwear market globally whereas in the fiscal year 2018-19Bangladesh exported
only US$16.89 billion valued knitwear. In this sense, Bangladesh knitwear sector has immense possibilities and opportunities to grasp the big
share of the global knitwear market. To make this happen in reality, Bangladesh knitwear sector needs to be restructured with cutting edge
machinery, recently developed equipment, and cost effective raw materials such as fabric and yearn, dyes, pigment and environment
friendly chemical so on.
I would like to congratulate, Redcarpet365 Ltd. for organizing the 5thBangladesh Intentional Garment & Textile Machinery Exhibition –
BIGTEX 2019 scheduled to be held from 7 to 10 November 2019 at ICCB, Dhaka. Targeting the RMG industry of Bangladesh, there isan
arrangement of more than 3 concurrent exhibitions under one platform, named as Bangladesh Int’l Fabric & Yarn Expo, Bangladesh Int’l
Printing, Packaging & Signage Expo& Bangladesh Int’l Dyes, Pigments, and Chemicals Expo at the enterprise level. I am hopeful that this
expo will surely help our entrepreneurs to be introduced with the cutting edge machinery, equipment, raw materials and other production
accessories and bring their production efficiency with increasing competiveness which leads to raising the volume of export as well.
Bangladesh Knitwear Manufacturers & Exporters Association (BKMEA) is proudly involving as an ‘Associate Partner’ with BIGTEX & guiding

I believe, BIGTEX-2019 (Bangladesh International Garment & Textile Machinery Exhibition), organized by Redcarpet365 Ltd., will help Local & Foreign
Manufacturers, Dealers & Suppliers to showcase their products, whereas Bangladeshi Garment & Textile Factory Owners & Apparel Exporters can be
benefitted as well.
What local apparel sector needs right now is a support from the government policies and the focus should be on developing new product base, which
will lead the fastest growing industry to achieve a $50 billion export target by 2021. Now we need to focus more on value-added items & new Markets
for export, along with increased employment of local skilled employees from Bangladesh. This kind of collaboration is very important for Bangladesh
to reach to the optimum goal.
I am sure such exhibitions will play an important role to demonstrate the latest type of machineries, technologies, dyes/chemicals, yarns, fabrics & will
provide an opportunity for our experts, engineers & technicians to have practical knowledge of the recent technological advancements available and
that also, without going abroad.
I am very much delighted to be the part of 5th edition of BIGTEX 2019 organized by Redcarpet365 Ltd. Targeting the entire Textile, Garment &
Apparel industry of Bangladesh, they have 3 more concurrent exhibitions Bangladesh Int’l Print, Pack & Sign Expo, Bangladesh Int’l Fabric & Yarn
Expo & Bangladesh Int’l Dyes, Pigments and Chemicals Expo, that will run from 7 to 10 November 2019, at ICCB, Dhaka.
Well Thread a concern of Well Group is participating in this expo as Powered by Partner & creates important role in the betterment of this
industry. Well Thread is the first local brand of industrial Sewing Thread in Bangladesh produced under integrated production facilities such as
SPINNING, TWISTING, DYEING, LUBRICATING & CONING. 40000 spindles of spinning units, supported by Japan origin Nara DX8 drawing, Murata
L-166 Auto coner and Murata two-for-one twisting machines, Schlafhorst PPWS soft winders can produce about 600 MT of 100% spun polyester
yarn of sewing Thread in different counts per month.
The increase of duty on Chinese imports by India; the trade war between China and the US may both help exports from Bangladesh and bringing
new investments to Bangladesh.
I congratulate, Redcarpet365 Ltd for organizing BIGTEX – Bangladesh’s International exhibition on Garment & Textile Machinery/ Printing &
Packaging Machinery / Yarn & Fabric / Dyes & Chemical, held from 07 to 10 Nov 2019 at ICCB, Dhaka.
Garments Accessories & Packaging Industry of Bangladesh, the backward linkage industry of RMG sector, earned US$ 7.15 billion during FY
2018-19. If this sector gets policy support and cooperation from government, the earning should likely to be increased up to US$ 12 billion by
the end of 2021. Total investment of this sector is about US$ 36 billion & value addition is near about 40 percent. I believe, this expo will help
local & foreign manufacturer, dealers & suppliers to showcase their products, where Bangladeshi Garment & Textile Factory Owners &
Apparel Exporters can get in touch with them.
I am sure these exhibitions will play an important role with the latest machineries, technologies, dyes / chemicals, yarns, fabrics, trims &
accessories available for Bangladesh. These Exhibitions will also provide an opportunity to our experts, engineers & technicians in the field
of textile to have practical knowledge on recent available technological advancements without going abroad.

Discussion on “Bangladesh Textile Industry & Industry 4.0”
held on Saturday, November 08, 2019 at Hall 1 of
International Convention City Bashundhara, ICCB

Mr. Faruque Hassan thinks, it’s time to discuss about present and future scenario of our
textile and readymade garment sector. During last 20 years, very few new improved
and value added products have been introduced, though we are in good pace of
business track. Only 1-2% of raw cotton, basic core material of garments is produced in
our country, rests are imported from other countries. In this condition still we are in
2nd largest garments exporters country. Our industry is always facing challenges, now
those challenges has turned into crisis. In this situation industry 4.0 revolution is very
much important to mitigate those crises. In order to create new market industrialists,
technical persons, textile engineers, all have to prioritize new product design research
and development. Coming out from basic product we must focus on special products
like geo textile, industrial textile combining with jute products. Use of man-made fiber
can help to improve our negative growth condition. Incentives for manmade fiber
based product can take our industry export just as for cotton from 700 million $ to 6
billion $. Without Govt. support and ethical fair price from buyer, it would be tough to
sustain new factories and as well as our garments industry.
International Convention City Bashundhara, ICCB‘Challenges’ in RMG is now turning into ‘Crisis’

Engr. Md. Shafiqur Rahman said, Textile industry- the highest contributor to our
economy is now at low ebb and textile leaders are tensed about ongoing huge factory
shutdown incidents. Decreasing of sales volume relative to high production volume is
the main cause of factory shut down. Diversified product launching, usage of manmade
fibre, prioritizing small industry and skilled manpower can be the ultimate solution to
overcome this tough situation. He believes, Bangladeshi entrepreneur are highly
talented to adapt with any sustainability issue very firstly. Engagement of Government
initiative can help the industry more to sustain. Already Govt. has established more
than 40 textile institution comprising of B.Sc. and Diploma education. He urged to
Government for ensuring quality education with updated curriculum and adequate
research scope. He also raised his voice assuring proper honor for the Textile Engineers
and stands for CADRE facility in Bangladesh Civil Service (BCS).
International Convention City Bashundhara, ICCBSkilled manpower is the ultimate strength of our industry

Mr. Ismail disclosed his concern regarding crucial moments our industry passing at
present. “We must realize the global impact of Industry 4.0 as a nation & also as an
industry leader. If we fail to understand it then our industry can be shifted to other
countries undoubtedly” said Mr. Ismail. During last 8 years in Europe per garments cost
decreased almost 17% just by adopting industry 4.0 & using technological advancement.
Artificial intelligence (AI) gives compound effect and makes big data navigation which
makes panic in our industry. But our industry already has started moving with new
terms. Few years ago our country was highest purchase destination by 47% buyers.
According to 2019 report result has been declined. So the situation comes to a
conclusion that buyers are thinking, it’s not about offshoring, not about nearshoring,
it’s about on shoring. He expressed some responsibilities from technical head,
marketing head and knowledgeable society to help industry by supporting knowledge.
Otherwise not only industrialists but also whole society will suffer a lot.
International Convention City Bashundhara, ICCB
Industry 4.0 is about networking & navigation,
partnership collaboration and supporting each other

Mr. Rashid shared his experience, when a company from other country make business
plan with Bangladesh, they fear thinking, “they would get right product at a right time
or not”. It happens because of our image crisis. He said, Global companies like SGS
Bangladesh Ltd. whose core activity is to ensure foreign buyer right manufacture from
our country so that they will get right product at right time can play strong role to
develop our industry image. Being concern and Liable to our textile society. Mr. Rashid
offered the opportunity to visit SGS modern testing Lab and some free training course
on global textile testing procedure for textile students from different universities who
are studying textile engineering all over the country.
International Convention City Bashundhara, ICCBImage crisis, an unpleasant truth about Bangladesh

Dr. Mahbubul Haque said automation is spreading all over the industry, but it doesn’t
mean we need no workers. In this case he inspirits nothing to fear. Industry can’t be
imagined without human workers. We obviously need more human but now highly
skilled with technological and technical knowledge. He forced in his speech to focus on
spinning & weaving and producing our own skilled expert to make the industry more
sustainable. In universities there must be introduced latest technological improvement
techniques.
International Convention City Bashundhara, ICCBAutomation doesn’t stimulate worker dismissal
