World Cup brings big boost for Bangladesh garment makers

03/06/2014
The Bangladesh Knitwear Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BKMEA) has said the country’s garment manufacturers have received a big boost from the 2014 FIFA World Cup.

Around 100 factories in Bangladesh have been engaged by sports brands around the world to make replica shirts for the World Cup, helping overall year-on-year growth to reach almost 15%, the BKMEA has estimated.

The increase in orders for the World Cup is likely to boost exports by at least $500 million, the association has said.
