We execute stringent controlling standards of raw materials and finished products. We also maintain regular quality management system training.
Textile Focus: What is the present market of Global Chemicals in the textile industry?
Jim: As you know Global Chemical is one of the largest softener flakes manufacturers in the world. We have a large market in China and also we are doing business in Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Vietnam, Combodia, USA and South America. We have the biggest market in Bangladesh. We have 50
different products and in Bangladesh we are selling only 7-8 products. We think we have the scope to work more in Bangladesh market. We are searching the opportunities of Global products in Bangladesh market. We are very keen to work closely with Bangladesh market. We are planning to arrange some training modules for Bangladeshi customer to develop them with the competitive quality products. We have already proved our strength in softener flacks in Bangladesh market and now want to introduce other textile finishing products.
Textile Focus: As you have a good market in Bangladesh do you have any plan for setting any manufacturing plant in Bangladesh.
Jim: Bangladesh is improving gradually and I am very pleased with the developments. I can see some visible infrastructural developments. But, I think this is not the right time to think about this. We are very comfortable with our local agent Eco Colour Chem and Mr. Sk Masud Rana is rightly supporting us in Bangladesh market. We hope for the best but right now we don’t have any plan to think about manufacturing plant in Bangladesh.
Textile Focus: Thanks you!
