  position in the Bangladesh economy. It is the largest
  exporting industry in Bangladesh, which experienced
  phenomenal growth during the last 25 years.

  attained a high profile in terms of foreign exchange earnings,
  exports, industrialization and contribution to GDP within a
  short span of time.
By this project they create employment opportunity. They have
  many competitors in this field. But they always provide
  better service more than their rivals. They are trying their
