Bangladeshi caps export boost ahead of Eid

Dhaka, July 20 (ANI): Demand for Bangladeshi caps, exported to around 40 countries across the globe, spurred during the holy month of Ramadan and workers in the factories have been working extra hours to meet the production deadlines of export orders ahead of Eid. Caps with various eye-catching designs, made in Dhaka, are available at reasonable prices across the country. White, multicolored, crocheted and embroidered skull caps are popular among Muslims across the globe. Bangladeshi caps are exported to Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Kuwait, Indonesia, Tajikistan, Pakistan, India, South Africa and other Middle Eastern countries after meeting the domestic demand. However, export of caps has fallen as China has overtaken the international market. Alif Cap Industry, one of the leading cap makers of Bangladesh, is doing brisk business as it has exported some 300,000 pieces of caps in last one month. Jul 20, 2014
