Fakir Apparels from Bangladesh, along with H&M, represented Bangladesh in Brussels with a four-country delegation to the EU Trade Commission. They engaged with the EU Director General of Trade, discussing key trade policies and the impact on economic, social, and environmental aspects. This meeting marked the first time policymakers met with manufacturers from developing nations to understand the garment sector's perspective. Topics included LDC graduation, GSP+ importance for economic growth, and sustainability policies. Manufacturers welcomed EU sustainability policies but expressed caution on potential disruptions to supply chains. They emphasized the need for support in technology, innovation, and investments from economic blocks like the EU to accelerate policy adoption.
