Customers of the market do display a strange need for communication through cell phones and are often noted to spend more money on making calls than they do on food. In terms of Social factors, the market is still thriving for more. Customers are still willing to try something new and because of lack of loyalty, customers are always ready for a new operator, hoping that call rates will fall even more which is a threat. The almost exponential growth in the Telecoms sector in Bangladesh in the last 5-10 years has had the same transformative impact on Bangladesh’s economy as the growth of Ready Made Garments...

...CERAMIC INDUSTRY The global ceramic industry is worth of US$20 billion. Bangladesh is perfectly positioned to expand rapidly in this sector with its high quality, cost ratio and creative human resource base. Traditionally, ceramic industry is a labor-intensive sector and companies in developed countries experience difficulties in remaining competitive due to rising labor cost and recent global financial crisis. Bangladesh, being a gas rich, low-labor cost economy and having advanced ‘bone china’ technology, is perfectly positioned to be a strategic partner in production and supply of ceramic goods (Board of Investment, Bangladesh). The ceramic industry is surprisingly not quite a new one in Bangladesh. It dates back to 1962. People Ceramic Industries Ltd (PCI) pioneered the manufacture of porcelain tableware in Bangladesh (Khandaker and Alamgir 2006). According to Bangladesh Ceramic Ware Manufacturers Association (BCWMA), there are approximately 40 ceramic manufacturers operating in this industry producing tableware, sanitary ware and tiles. A medium scale ceramic plant needs around Taka 10 crore (Taka 100 million) in initial investment and the BCWMA sources say the present investment in the country’s ceramic industry is roughly about Taka 2,000 crore (Taka 20 billion) and this sector employs one lakh (0.1 million) workers. Shinepukur, Monno, Bengal Fine, Standard, Peoples and National Ceramic are considered as major players in ceramic tableware market. RAK, Fu Wang, China-Bangla, FARR...
