The ready-made garments (RMG) industry in Bangladesh started in the late 1970s and has since grown to become the backbone of Bangladesh's economy, contributing billions in export earnings and employing millions of workers. RMG, particularly knitwear, has experienced strong growth due to trade preferences from markets like the EU and Canada. Bangladesh has developed clusters of supplier firms and a large, low-cost, skilled workforce to support a thriving garment export industry. However, it must continue to address infrastructure and skills challenges to sustain its growth and meet projections that RMG exports will double by 2015 and triple by 2020.

This PowerPoint presentation summarizes the effect of the ready-made garments sector on Bangladesh's economy. It notes that the garments sector is the second largest exporter of ready-made garments globally, and is a major source of foreign income and employment for Bangladesh. The sector employs over 4 million people and plays an important role in women's empowerment and social and economic development. However, the presentation also identifies challenges for the sector, such as a lack of skilled labor, energy shortages, and political unrest. Recommendations to address these challenges and further strengthen the sector are provided.
The ready-made garments (RMG) sector is the leading industry in Bangladesh in terms of foreign currency earnings, contributing over 80% of total export earnings and 16% of GDP. There are over 6000 garment factories employing around 4 million workers, 80% of whom are female. The RMG industry exports knit and woven garments to over 180 countries worldwide, with major importers being the European Union, Canada, and the United States. However, the sector also faces challenges such as poor infrastructure, low technology usage, and safety issues, evidenced by the 2013 Rana Plaza factory collapse that killed over 1200 people. The government and organizations are working to address these issues and strengthen the industry.
The readymade garments industry acts as the backbone of our economy and as a catalyst for the development of our country. We take pride in the sector that has been fetching billions of dollars as export earnings and creating jobs for millions of people in the country.
The “Made in Bangladesh” tag has also brought glory for Bangladesh, making it a prestigious brand across the globe. Bangladesh, which was once termed by cynics a “bottomless basket” has now become a “basket full of wonders.” The country with its limited resources has been maintaining 6% annual average GDP growth rate and has brought about remarkable social and human development.
The garment industry has been a major driver of Bangladesh's economy and exports for decades. It now employs over 4 million workers but faces challenges related to labor issues and unrest over low wages and working conditions. Despite problems, the industry remains resilient and Bangladesh's competitiveness in low costs is expected to allow it to play a continued significant role in the global apparel market.
The readymade garments industry is the backbone of Bangladesh's economy, accounting for over 80% of export earnings and employing millions of people. It began in the 1980s and has transformed Bangladesh from one of the poorest countries to a middle income country with an average 6% GDP growth rate. The industry started when Bangladesh's jute industry declined and entrepreneurs like Nurool Quader Khan sent trainees to South Korea to learn garment production techniques, establishing the foundation of the modern RMG sector. Bangladeshi RMG products have gained a prestigious global brand and helped develop the country using its limited resources.

A CASE STUDY ON CONSTRAINTS AFFECTING THE PRODUCTIVITY OF READYMADE GARMENT (...ijmvsc
The success of Readymade garment (RMG) exports from Bangladesh over the past few decades has
reached to an unprecedented height and sometimes it goes beyond optimistic expectations compared to any
other sectors in the country. Being one of the lucrative multibillion dollar industries, it has provided more
than 4.0 million employment opportunities and ensured women empowerment. It has brought the fortune to
rural women communities and they have become independent by themselves. The garment industry in
Bangladesh faces a number of challenges including fallacious working condition, dearth of safety, political
turbulence and, low remuneration. To sustain in the competitive global market, management has to identify
the prime key opportunities and identify any threats. This study was conducted to analyze the prospects and
constraints of Bangladesh RMG industry using well known multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) method
namely analytic hierarchy process (AHP). To judge the model, data was collected through the focus group
discussion and key informant interviews with the managers of three different garment industries situated in
Gazipur, Bangladesh. The findings of the study showed that “unsound working condition” among several
challenges affects workers working capability and productivity severely. The study recommends that
through proper identification and taking corrective measures against the challenges by the management of
RMG sector, Bangladesh has the opportunity to be the market leader in this sector.
The document summarizes the ready-made garments (RMG) industry in Bangladesh. It states that the RMG sector has emerged as a key export industry since the 1970s, accounting for around 85% of Bangladesh's total export earnings and employing over 1.5 million workers. The sector benefits from having an abundant and cheap workforce that is easily trainable. While the industry has grown significantly, it faces challenges in adopting new technologies and ensuring proper working conditions. The document provides background on the origins and growth of the RMG sector as the largest exporting industry in Bangladesh and outlines the objectives of the study, which include analyzing the industry and relating knowledge to practical experience.
This paper investigated the Contribution of RMG to the National Economy of Bangladesh. The understanding between the buyer and supplier is now better than before. At present, Bangladesh is the world-second largest apparel exporter. If the growth continues, within a few years Bangladesh will be the world-largest apparel exporter.
Socio-Economic Factors of Readymade Garments Workers in BangladeshDr. Nazrul Islam
Readymade garment industry is the prime sector of foreign earnings of Bangladesh. There are more than 4,500 garment companies are operating in Bangladesh. More than 80% of the foreign earnings are coming from this sector. At present, four million workers are working in this sector in which 90% are rural women. It is claimed by the employers that the garment companies have helped to develop the socio-economic status of the rural women employed in this sector. Hence, this paper aims at identifying the socio-economic status factors of the garment workers of Bangladesh. This study suggests that housing, water and sanitation conditions, medical facilities and first aid treatment, wages, social status, adaptation of cultural values and norms, attachment with labor unions, ownership arrangement, leave with pay and overtime are significantly related to the socio-economic status of the garments workers of Bangladesh. This study recommends that the measures for improving the socio-economic status of the women workers are related to the improvement of their housing conditions, education, health and sanitation, and the favorable service rules for the women workers.

A slide regarding the Bangladesh RMG (ready-made garments) sector. Here we describe a summary . RMG exports reached $38.57 billion during the July-April of 2022-23 fiscal year, reflecting a 9.09% increase compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year, according to the Export Promotion Bureau (EPB).
A detailed breakdown of the various categories indicated that knitwear exports reached $20.96 billion, while woven garment exports became $17.60 billion with 8.97% and 9.24% year-over-year growth respectively. Overall, it's a sign of a steady growth in Bangladesh's overall RMG export earnings.
Regardless of the overall positive trend, a more detailed inspection of single month statistics reveals a recent decline in apparel export growth.In April, the country's RMG exports observed a significant decline of 15.48%, amounting to $3.32 billion compared to April 2022.
The amalgamation of these declines contributed to the overall descending trend in recent months, which stands in contrast to the otherwise positive trajectory for the mentioned period in 2022-23 fiscal year, said Mohiuddin Rubel, director of BGMEA and additional managing director of Denim Expert Limited."Our target was $46.80 billion, and we had to ensure a 9.83% growth. There are two months left in this financial year, so in these two months, we have to meet the target of about $8 billion," he said.
"In April, our export target was $4.07 billion against $3.32 billion target. We exported 18.40% less than our target this month. And compared to this month last year, our exports decreased by 15.48%. This is the lowest single month export this year."
"The reason for this is that we had fewer working days due to Eid. Exports are less in that month due to the general Eid holidays. Another trend that has been going on is our exports were down last month compared to other months," said Rubel."We realised that our capacity was dwindling. In continuation of that trend, exports have declined this month as well. We have seen negative trends in the Eid holidays," he added.
"However, it will be clear in the coming month whether this negative trend is due to the impact of the Eid holidays or because of the negative trend that we have been seeing," Rubel said.
"Hopefully, we will be able to meet the remaining targets in the coming months," he added.
