International corporations like H&M have invested in Bangladesh's textile industry due to ownership, location, and internalization advantages:
- H&M has a $3.5 billion ownership stake in Bangladeshi apparel factories, making it the largest foreign clothing buyer in the country.
- Bangladesh offers low wages and energy prices as well as a large skilled workforce. Clothing can be produced at extremely low costs.
- The country's large domestic market of over 170 million people and strategic location allow for internalization of production and distribution within South Asia.

This presentation provides an overview of Bangladesh's ready-made garments sector. It discusses the sector's history and growth since the 1970s. Currently, there are over 5,600 factories employing around 4 million workers, mostly women. The sector accounts for around 80% of Bangladesh's total exports and has helped the country become the second largest apparel exporter in the world. However, the sector also faces challenges such as infrastructure and safety issues, as evidenced by the 2013 Rana Plaza building collapse that killed over 1,100 people. The government has since taken initiatives to improve workplace safety standards and regulations in the industry.

History of Textile Industry in Bangladesh
The textile and apparel industry has a long history in Bangladesh dating back to the 1970s. In the early years, the industry struggled but began growing in the 1980s as export-oriented garment factories increased. By 1999 there were over 2,900 garment factories. The Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) was formed as a lobbying group for the industry.

RMG Sector Risk Management and Social Compliances in Bangladesh
The RMG sector in Bangladesh faces many risks that threaten its growth and sustainability. Major risks include accidental factory fires and building collapses that have killed over 1,100 workers in recent years. Other risks are reputational risks to brands from supply chain issues, regulatory risks from stricter compliance standards, and operational risks from disruptions. To manage these risks, reforms are needed that strengthen compliance with building codes and safety standards, improve worker representation, relocate unsafe factories, and develop new economic zones with robust infrastructure and safety measures. Social compliance with codes of conduct is also important to manage risks and improve working conditions.

Identifying the reasons of hazards and safety measures in readymade garments ...Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University, Dinajpur, Bangladesh.
This document discusses hazards and safety measures in Bangladesh's ready-made garments industries. It identifies several hazards including fires, raw material issues, unskilled workers, and poor working conditions. Existing safety measures are insufficient, with issues like lack of sprinklers and fire doors. Recommendations include improved training, fire safety protocols, and ensuring factories follow safety standards and guidelines. While some progress has been made in fixing safety flaws, continued efforts are needed to improve conditions and protect workers in Bangladesh's important garments industry.Spirality & Shrinkage

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

- 2. HISTORY • Clothing and textiles have been important in human history and reflects the materials available to a civilization as well as the technologies that it has mastered. • Like other 3rd world countries Bangladesh is a developing country. Her economic development depends firstly on agriculture and secondly on industry. • Reaz Garments, the pioneer, was established in 1960 as a small tailoring outfit, named Reaz Store in DHAKA. It served only domestic markets for about 15 years. M/s Reaz Garments Ltd expanded its operations into export market by selling 10,000 pieces of men's shirts worth French Franc 13 million to a Paris-based firm in 1978. It was the first direct exporter of garments from Bangladesh.
- 3. PRESENT SCENARIO • By 2005 the ready-made garments (RMG) industry was the only multi-billion-dollar manufacturing and export industry in Bangladesh, accounting for 75 per cent of the country's earnings in that year. • Bangladesh is now one of the 12 largest apparel exporters of the world, the sixth largest supplier in the US market and the fifth largest supplier of T-shirts in the EU market. • Currently, the textile mills provide 70% of national exports. • Nine out of ten people employed in the industry – are women. • By IMF estimates, as a result of the abolition of quota exports of Bangladesh will be reduced by 25%.
- 4. PRESENT SCENARIO Year Number of Garment Industries Employment in Million Workers: 1983-84 134 0.040 1988-89 759 0.317 1993-94 1839 0.827 1998-99 2963 1.500 2003-04 3957 2.000 2008-09 4825 3.100 [Source: Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA)
- 5. MAJOR DOWNFALLS TAZREEN FASHIONS The 2012 Dhaka fire broke out on 24 November 2012, in the Tazreen Fashion factory in the Ashulia district on the outskirts of Dhaka, Bangladesh. At least 117 people were confirmed dead in the fire, and at least 200 were injured, making it the deadliest factory fire in the nation's history.
- 6. MAJOR DOWNFALLS 2013 Savar building collapse ( Rana Plaza) On 24 April 2013, Rana Plaza, an eight-story commercial building, collapsed in Savar, a sub-district in the Greater Dhaka Area, the capital of Bangladesh. The search for the dead ended on 13 May with a death toll of 1,129. Approximately 2,515 injured people were rescued from the building alive.
- 7. CONSEQUENCES • Bangladesh was a beneficiary of the U.S. Generalized System of Preferences (GSP), which promotes economic growth in developing nations by allowing duty-free imports. which has been taken away. • Retailers such as Walmart, Gap and Disney were lobbied to ensure their products were sourced responsibly from workplaces that adhered to decent standards of worker rights and safety. • The orders from the foreign countries are not coming like before, they are going for the another nearest possible outsourcing.
- 8. UPGRADED SAFETY MEASURES • As of June 2014, efforts to improve safety were being coordinated under "an unprecedented comprehensive "Accord on Fire and Building Safety" ... Around 180 companies - mostly from Europe - international and local trade unions, Bangladeshi employers, exporters and government are part of this agreement." In addition, a "Bangladesh Alliance for Worker Safety - an association of 26 American companies including CAP and Wal- Mart" seeks to address these issues from an entrepreneurial standpoint, without participation of trade unions. Together the two groups "are responsible for inspecting around 2,100 factories over a period of five years.“ • BGMEA has given emphasis on safety measures in every garments factory.
- 9. Recommendations Based on the research findings, the requirements of safety and health for the garments worker to be maintained, and followings are recommendations: Maintenance of standards of cleanliness. Adequate lighting, ventilation & temperature. Control of elements hazardous to health like dusts, gases, fumes, etc. associated with particular operations. Requirement of certificate of fitness for young persons from certifying surgeons. Requirement of periodical medical examination for persons engaged in hazardous operations. Requirement for making available adequate first-aid facilities. Requirement of a dispensary manned by a medical practitioner for units employing 500or more workers.
