Note that Japan is a very potential market for Bangladesh’s export products. Bangladesh’s exports to Japan in 2022-23 were USD 1.9 billion, significantly higher than the previous year. The participants of the fair expressed hope that Bangladesh’s participation in Fashion World Tokyo will play an important role in maintaining the existing share of the Japanese market and increasing exports.
