BGMEA holds 42nd Annual General Meeting
The 42nd Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) was held at the BGMEA Complex in Uttara of Dhaka on Saturday.
Mahmud Hasan Khan, president of the business organisation, chaired the event.
Current and former vice presidents and board members, members of various standing committees and general members of the organisation attended the meeting.
During the session, the audited financial statements for the fiscal year (FY) 2023-24 were approved and the budget for 2024-25 was presented and endorsed.
Auditors for the FY 2024-25 were also appointed.
President Mahmud highlighted the current state of the garment industry, reviewed initiatives undertaken by the board over the past three months, and outlined future action plans.
Meanwhile, BGMEA Vice President (Finance) Mizanur Rahman presented the financial report for 2023-24 and the budget for the new fiscal year.
The members reaffirmed their commitment to united efforts in addressing industry challenges.
Notably, this AGM was originally scheduled during the previous board’s tenure but delayed due to the government-appointed administrator overseeing BGMEA for nearly eight months prevented it from being held.
The current board organised the meeting promptly after taking office reflecting their commitment to transparency and accountability toward members, reports UNB.
