The export Promotion Bureau (EPB) encourages its stakeholders to suggest for further improving EPB services and boosting export growth.

The EPB Vice-Chairman Anwar Hossain made the call while addressing the quarterly meeting of the bureau on 17 September.

The meeting discussed improvements in institutional efficiency and effectiveness under the 'Annual Performance Agreement' (APA). 

Chaired by Anwar Hossain, Vice-Chairman of the EPB, the meeting was also attended by the Director General of the EPB, department representatives, and 40 stakeholders from the textile and non-textile sectors.

The meeting aimed to update stakeholders on EPB's citizen services and grievance redressal mechanisms while evaluating the bureau's overall effectiveness. 

Hossain emphasised that many EPB services are now accessible online, with some still in the pilot phase. 

He also noted ongoing efforts in Business Process Engineering to reduce time, costs, and administrative visits. 

Representatives from leading export-related institutions, including City Group, Kiam Metal Industries Limited, Meghna Group of Industries, and others, participated in discussions about diversifying exportable products, exploring new markets, and tackling export challenges.
