WHY INVEST IN BANGLADESH

Gateway to South and Southeast Asia

Bangladesh’s geography offers a decisive competitive edge. Located at the confluence of South and Southeast Asia and nestled along the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh serves as a natural bridge between major economic blocs — SAARC and ASEAN. This positioning enables efficient access to the 3+ billion consumer market of South Asia and Southeast Asia, while its growing port infrastructure and regional transport corridors are turning it into a pivotal logistics hub. Investors benefit from shorter transit times, access to both land and maritime routes, and integration into regional and global value chains. Multinational firms are increasingly leveraging Bangladesh as part of a “China+1” strategy, tapping into cost-effective production alongside direct access to regional and global markets. Bangladesh’s strategic positioning, combined with policy-backed infrastructure investments, offers long-term logistical and market advantages for global businesses.
