The Dhaka Times Desk The Brazil World Cup is coming up. There is another good news for Brazil fans in this World Cup. And that is the name of Bangladesh will be on the Brazil team jersey. This time, the tag of the Brazil team's jersey of the World Cup will have 'Made in Bangladesh' written on it.
Many organizations in Bangladesh get the job of making jerseys for many countries of this World Cup. Among them, a garment factory in Bangladesh is also responsible for making the jerseys of the host team. But in the meantime, Rana Plaza collapsed. Which moves people around the world. The incident was reported to the Brazilian Football Federation CBF. Taking everything into account, they decided to write 'Made in Bangladesh' on the tag of the football team's jerseys to honor the outstanding work of Bangladeshi garment workers. As a result, the name of Bangladesh will be associated with this World Cup. This is a unique recognition for Bangladesh. In any case, the people involved in the garment industry hope that the name of Bangladesh will spread more in this promotion of Bangladesh worldwide.
Bangladesh Knitwear Manufacturers Association or BKMA said this is a big achievement for the garment industry. Those involved in the garment industry said that this year, Bangladesh has supplied over 1 crore garments of at least 15 items for the World Cup. Most of them were Nit or Genji. On the occasion of the World Cup, the net export of goods increased by about 35 percent compared to the previous one. BKME said in this regard, it will take some more time to calculate the total export income because clothes are still being exported on this occasion. BKME also said that in many countries of the developed world, wearing the jersey or T-shirt of the favorite team has become a trend, as a result, a large amount of sportswear is exported from Bangladesh throughout the year. In the past few years, the demand for sportswear has increased worldwide and its market is growing. Sportswear worth about 1 billion dollars is exported from Bangladesh every year.
According to exporter sources, Nike, Adidas, Puma supply jerseys to players of various teams around the world. And most of these jerseys are made by the hands of the workers in the garment factories of our country. In addition to the main game jersey, players wear 12 different outfits in practice. And most of these clothes are made in Bangladesh. This recognition by the Brazilian Football Federation shows an international respect for the work of our country's garment workers.
