BGMEA President Faruque Hassan has called upon Gloria Jeans, a Russian high street retail giant, to consider expanding its sourcing of garments from Bangladesh, especially high-value and non-cotton items, reports UNB.

The BGMEA president made the call during a meeting with Moyeen Ahmed, regional general manager for Bangladesh and India at Gloria Jeans. The latter paid a courtesy visit to Faruque Hassan, president of Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA), says a press release on Thursday.

During the meeting, they discussed various mutual interests, with a focus on strengthening the collaborative relationship between Gloria Jeans and the Bangladeshi garment industry.
