Is the Bangladesh market crucial to Taiwan? Let us hear some of our well-known Taiwan Manufacturer’s insight and observation.

PRM-Taiwan has never been to Bangladesh before, this is the first time we came to Bangladesh and exhibited at the 15th IPF Bangladesh industry fair. We noticed that there were quite a few Taiwan manufacturer exhibitors, thus, it can be seen that the Bangladesh market is crucial to Taiwan’s market. We have had the chance to interview some well-known Taiwan manufacturers and asked them to share their point of view and their advice on how to operate the market in Bangladesh. 

Mr. Sumit Jalan, regional sales director of Polystar. 

It is a great honor to invite Sumit from Polystar to share the changes in Bangladesh's industry after the pandemic and the differences between the Bangladesh market and the India market. Because of the pandemic, the amount of  plastic related items, including gloves, protective covers, cleaning supplies, etc... is highly needed. With the increasing demand for plastic materials, recycling is also a vital part of the process. Let us watch the interview with Sumit, he will mention how the government implements corresponding measures in response to environmental issues.

Mr. Jacky Chang, area manager of HCI Industry.

While at the IPF Bangladesh industry fair, we certainly couldn’t miss HCI Industry, which has been operating in the Bangladesh market for many years. This time, Jacky from HCI has shared his point of view on Bangladesh’s industry and how Taiwan does business in Bangladesh. We have talked about the differences between the markets in other Asian regions. Let's take a look at HCI Jacky's interview.
