What is the volume of trade between Turkey and Bangladesh?

Western firms have built hundreds of textile factories in Bangladesh were clothes are made from H&M, Primark and Zara.

They are produced in Bangladesh for a few dollars by kids and women and selled in Europe for much more. I saw a documentary about this when one of those factories collapsed few years ago.

Turkey has a huge textile industry. I see chances to conquer the textile market out of the claws of France, UK and Spain in Bangladesh.

If i am not wrong most of the garment factories are owned by Bangladeshis, some are owned by Chinese, Sri-lankan, Korean and others. Western brands are only buyer here.

Child labors are prohibited in export-oriented garment factories (related to supply chains) due to the buyers zero tolerance policies.

Bangladesh signed a new deal with Roketsan. The name of products Bangladesh purchased aren't disclosed.

I guess no. A MoU was signed for security cooperation and another for roketsan's products.

Turkey will assign defense industry consultants to nine countries, considering the country’s priorities in the defense industry, according to a new decree published in the Official Gazette.

Accordingly, the Presidency of Defense Industries (SSB) was added to public institutions and organizations with foreign organizations.

The Presidency's overseas organization will carry out diplomatic activities in the country of duty along with the issues falling within the scope of the SSB.

It will follow, report and evaluate the developments in the defense industry and the relevant legislation in that country, and inform the Presidency of the results.

The overseas organization will represent the Presidency at bilateral and multilateral international meetings, follow up on the strategies and policies regarding the defense industry, and carry out export permits and licenses.

It will monitor approval and similar processes, and gather information about the tenders to be held.

The overseas organization that will explore opportunities for joint research and development (R&D), technology acquisition, product development, export to a third country and similar cooperation projects will contribute to the development and strengthening of communication and cooperation between the two countries' public and/or private institutions or organizations or companies.

It is also responsible for monitoring and evaluating the implementation of the bilateral agreements, protocols, and memorandums of understanding signed between the country of duty and the defense industry will be liable for carrying out foreign affairs and transactions among the duties assigned to the SSB.


Within the scope of the regulation, Defense Industry Consultancy staff will be deployed in embassies in nine countries – Doha/Qatar, Islamabad/Pakistan, Brazil, Jakarta/Indonesia, Baku/Azerbaijan, Kuala Lumpur/Malaysia, Muscat/Oman, Dhaka/Bangladesh, London/U.K.

Hearing about this so much but saw very little progress. We need to work with them for aircraft and missile tech if we're serious about aircraft production. Hope the economic situation we're facing since Covid will improve soon.
