Bangladesh Consulate General in New York said that the member delegation from Bangladesh would also visit Mexico to explore the market.
The Consulate General organized an interactive meeting at the Chancery attended by leading Bangladeshi-American businessmen along with community leaders based in New York.

Aktar Hossain and Officers from the Ministry and Consulate General were present, among others.
The minister briefed the business leaders about the policy priority of the present government to expand the market of jute products.
