孟加拉国服装行业需要长期规划

 

 

Bangladesh apparel industry needs long-term planning

Bangladesh apparel industry needs to work on its market strategies for the future as after getting the status of a developing nation in 2021, the country will lose the export benefits it currently enjoys being a least-developed nation. As of now, it has zero-duty benefit to the European Union (EU) and Generalised System of Preferences (GSP) to some nations.

Apparel exports to EU will face a duty of 12.5 per cent after 2021. International buyers who currently import apparel from Bangladesh are also likely to work out strategies with Bangladesh's long term plans, said Johan Frishell, Swedish ambassador to Bangladesh at a discussion during the fifth Bangladesh Denim Expo in Dhaka, according to Bangladeshi media reports.

Bangladesh can continue to enjoy zero-duty benefits to EU even after 2021, if it attains the GSP Plus status. It can be attained by maintaining international standards in human rights, environmental balance and curbing corruption.

Long-term plans are also likely to ensure a sustainable business for Bangladesh and offer long-term predictability to international buyers. The country should also carry out bilateral negotiations with buyers from EU, Canada and the US to continue receiving duty-free benefits after it becomes a developing nation, said Frishell.

孟加拉国服装行业需要长期规划

孟加拉国服装行业需要致力于其未来的市场策略，因为它想要在2021年得获得一个发展中国家的地位,该国就会失去作为一个最不发达国家目前享有的出口优惠。到目前为止,它享有免税进入欧盟(EU)以及其他一些国家的普遍优惠制(GSP)。

对欧盟的服装出口2021年之后将面临12.5%的关税。目前从孟加拉进口服装的国际买家也可能致力于制定孟加拉国的长期策略,瑞典驻孟加拉国大使Johan Frishell在达卡举行的第五届孟加拉国牛仔展览会讨论会上说道,孟加拉国媒体报道。

孟加拉国可以继续享受欧盟零关税的好处甚至在2021年之后,如果它获得普遍优惠加惠制的状态。它可以通过在人权、环境平衡和遏制腐败方面达到维护国际标准，。

长期计划也可能确保孟加拉国可持续的业务，为国际买家提供长期的可预见性。在孟加拉变成一个发展中国家以后，该国也应该与欧盟，加拿大和美国的买家进行双边谈判,来继续获得免税的好处，Frishell说。
