BGMEA wants uninterrupted power to meet export deadline
UNB, Dhaka
Bangladesh Garment Manu-facturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) yesterday urged the authorities to ensure uninterrupted electricity supply for the garment factories to enable them to timely complete the peak season's export orders. "It's the peak time for the readymade garment industries. Many of the apparel factories will face problem if uninterrupted electricity can not be ensured in this peak season," said BGMEA president SM Fazlul Haque. He also said the apparel sector's productivity is being disrupted seriously due to frequent load shedding, said a press release. The BGMEA president pointed out that the buyers would not grant the exporters any extra time for shipment due to an internal problem like shortage in electricity supply. "That's why it is important to complete the shipment within the given time," he added.
