The Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FBCCI) and Greater New York Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GNYCCI) have recently joined hands to boost bilateral trade between Bangladesh and the United States of America.

The two trade bodies signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) at a seminar titled "25th September: Bangabandhu's Vision and Bangladeshi Immigrant Day" at New York in the USA on Sunday.

Md Jashim Uddin, FBCCI president and Mark Jeff, president of GNYCCI, signed the MoU, according to a statement released by the FBCCI today.

Apart from garment items, Jashim Uddin urged the US companies to source other products from Bangladesh's diverse export basket.
