The Bangladesh Jute Mills Association (BJMA) and the Canada-Bangladesh Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CBCCI) on Thursday inked a memorandum of understanding (MoU) for extending cooperation to promote Bangladesh’s jute products in the Canadian markets.
BJMA Chairman Md Abul Hossain and CBCCI Executive Vice-President Areef Rahman signed the MoU on behalf of their respective sides at the BJMA office in the city.
Speaking on the occasion, Areef Rahman said the use of eco-friendly jute products will make important contributions to the national economy and it will help build a smart Bangladesh. Over the last decade, he said, demand for jute products in the international market, including Canada, has risen owing to a change in the mindset of consumers who prefer eco-friendly products to synthetic counterparts.
