Bangladesh’s earnings from goods and services exports have fallen for the sixth month in a row compared with the same period a year earlier. The Export Promotion Bureau (EPB) released the updated report on Monday, showing a fractional decrease of $22.3 million year-on-year. This performance contrasts sharply with the first seven months of FY25, which saw a robust growth of 11.68 per cent. The primary driver of the export basket, the ready-made garment industry, brought in $3.61 billion this January, down 1.35 per cent from the $3.66 billion earned a year earlier. Bangladesh exported $48.28 billion worth of goods and services in the first seven months of FY25.
