60 RMG day-care centres to be built

April 27, 2010

Bangladesh’s top association of knitwear manufacturers and exporters and German based garment retailer ‘Metro’ will jointly set up a 60 child day-care centre for garment workers. A contract was signed on Monday between BKMEA and Metro to set up the centres in Naryanganj by July this year.

BKMEA president Fazlul Hoque said that there are day-care centres in many big garment factories and they are planning to provide the services to the factories which do not have it.

The Metro will bear 70 percent of the cost and BKMEA will provide the remaining 30 percent.

Commerce minister Faruk Khan and the German ambassador to Bangladesh Holger Michael were present in the signing ceremony.
