Event Details:

Agro Food Processing is an over $2.2 billion dollar market in Bangladesh, growing over 8% yearly. There is a huge export market as well. Bangladesh Agro-Processors' Association (BAPA)’s members export over US$ 500 million worth of product per year. The most interesting part - Bangladesh is just getting started in this space. With the changes in our lifestyle - a fast-growing middle-class, increasing participation of women in the workforce, convenience becoming a priority in our life and a growing health consciousness in people - food processing offers a huge opportunity to aspiring entrepreneurs to build consequential companies in this sector. Add the power of technology and free distribution power using digital platforms, that’s a match made in heaven.
