The Ceylon Chamber of Commerce, in collaboration with the Sri Lanka – Bangladesh Business Council, will host a visiting business delegation from the Dhaka Chamber of Commerce & Industry (DCCI), Bangladesh, on 17 June, at the Hilton Colombo Residence.

The delegation comprises 24 representatives from 22 Bangladeshi companies, spanning a wide range of sectors including automobiles, FMCG, agri cold chain, IT services, logistics, construction, packaging, financial services, pharmaceuticals, renewable energy, manufacturing, and apparel.

The visit will facilitate direct business-to-business (B2B) engagement between Sri Lankan and Bangladeshi enterprises, with a view to exploring trade partnerships, investment opportunities, and joint ventures. The event offers an ideal platform for Sri Lankan businesses to connect with potential partners involved in export-import operations, manufacturing, infrastructure development, software development, and energy solutions.

With a population of over 170 million and Preferential Trade Access to major markets including the EU, UK, Canada, and Japan under the Generalised System of Preferences (GSP), Bangladesh presents a compelling gateway for Sri Lankan businesses looking to expand. Its strategic connectivity to India, China, and ASEAN countries further strengthens its position as a regional hub for trade and investment.

The program will begin at 9:30 a.m., and includes opportunities for networking, sector-focused discussions, and pre-scheduled B2B meetings tailored to aligned interests. Given the high levels of interest in the event, Sri Lankan companies are encouraged to register early to secure their participation. An optional networking lunch will also be available.
