Coppel, a Mexican retailer, wants to import more readymade clothing, as well as bicycles, home textiles, underwear, home appliances, jute products, and ceramics, from Bangladesh.
In July, a 10-member group led by Walmart’s sourcing manager Jorge Gomez Garcia will visit Bangladesh, according to Abida Islam, Bangladesh’s ambassador to Mexico, who spoke to the trade ministry in Dhaka.
In a letter dated May 27 to the ministry’s Senior Secretary Tapan Kanti Ghosh, the ambassador stated that Coppel has been doing business with Bangladesh successfully and satisfactorily for numerous years, with imports from Bangladesh increasing from $5 million to $20 million in just a few years.
