Faster Bangladesh-Europe shipping possible via Chattagram, Koper ports

Bangladesh Garment manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) president Faruque Hassan recently met Wahid Salam, consul at consulate of Slovenia in Bangladesh, and Miha Groznik, consul at consulate of Bangladesh in Slovenia.

Hassan said the direct route might make Bangladesh’s garment industry more competitive by reducing time and cost, and significantly raise the country’s trade with Europe, according to a Bangladeshi newspaper report.

A direct shipping service has already been introduced between the Chattogram port and an Italian port.
