Garment Industry in Bangladesh

                                                      Garments Industry in Bangladesh                               
             Agriculture in Bangladesh, is the backbone of economy progress. The people of Bangladesh, agriculture is the chief source in the sphere of economy. Ours is an agree-based country. Bangladesh is composed of villages. Of that reason, agriculture is the best product of Bangladesh. Our government wants to reduce poverty by getting highest productivity from agriculture sector. We wants to acquire self-reliance in food production. Apart from agriculture, the country is much concerned about the growth of export division. Bangladesh has already lagged behind of her export from time to time. In the before time, jute and tea were the most export-oriented industry in Bangladesh. But with the continual perils of flood, falling jute fibre prices and a considerable decline in world demand, the role of the jute sector to the countrys economy has deteriorated (Spin anger,1986). After that, focus has been shifted to yhe function of production sector, especially in garment industry.           
Working Workers

                             The garment industry has been the key export division of Bangladesh. It has played an important role for foreign exchange of the last 25 years. At present, the country produces about $5 billion worth of products each year by exporting garment. The industry affords employment about 3 million workers in Bangladesh. 90% workers of our garments industry are women. They are very poor. They can not provide a suitable dish for their children. The owner of the garments do not provide a suitable payment for the garment workers. sometimes, garment workers happen struggle against the owner of garments. They locked the garment factory. Our government has taken some measure step for the garment workers. Besides, the authority of Bangladesh has passed some effective rules for the welfare of garment workers. 

                           The demand of products is more to foreign countries. Especially, two non-market elements have performed a vital functioning confirming the garments success. These elements are under Multi-Fiber Arrangement (MFA) in the North American market and especial market entry to European markets. The whole procedure is strongly related with the trend of relocation of production.
