The newly elected board members are poised to assume their roles shortly, aspiring to invigorate BGBA’s activities and collaborate with the government to advocate for policy support, benefitting both its members and the industry at large.
This election marks a significant milestone, occurring after a 12-year hiatus at the behest of its members.
The BGBA, recognised as one of the foremost trading bodies for buying houses in Bangladesh’s RMG sector, reportedly holds approval from the Director of Trade Organisations (DTO) of the Ministry of Commerce, bolstering its position as a vibrant member of the Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FBCCI).
Functioning as a safeguard for all buying houses in the nation, BGBA is committed to realising the aspirations of its 1300-plus members.
