Dhaka, June 25 (UNB) – Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation, (PVH Corp), a US apparel company, has expressed interest to import more readymade garments (RMG) from Bangladesh.

A PVHC delegation, led by its senior vice-president of global human rights and social responsibilities Marcela Manubens, showed the interest when they met President Zillur Rahman at Bangbahabn on Monday.

During the meeting, Marcela Manubens apprised the President that her company has been importing readymade garments from Bangladesh since 1975 and is keen to take more in the days to come.

Marcela also said her company is keen to work to ensure the safety, security and welfare of the workers engaged in the garment sector of Bangladesh.

Welcoming the delegation, the President called upon the international buyers to import more readymade garments and other world-class products from Bangladesh considering the competitive prices.

“The Bangladesh government offers various incentives to international buyers for increasing its export volume,” he said.

Chairman of Beximco Limited Sohel F. Rahman and secretaries to the President’s Office were Present.
