Bangladeshi-made cosmetics are now being used in Thailand’s beauty market, marking a shift from the past dominance of Thai products in Bangladesh. Improved production capacity and quality have enabled Bangladeshi brands to enter Thailand’s retail and e-commerce platforms such as Lazada Thailand and local pharmacies. Distributors report growing Thai consumer interest in natural, high-quality, and competitively priced skincare and cosmetic products from Bangladesh.

Industry sources note that Bangladesh’s cosmetics sector has transformed over the past decade through modern production technologies, international-grade raw materials, research and development, and advanced packaging. Companies like Remark HB Limited, which exports brands such as Neor, Ciodil, and Lily, are now reaching multiple international markets including Thailand, the United States, India, and the UAE. Sector leaders view this as recognition of Bangladesh’s global manufacturing capability.

Experts believe that continued adherence to international standards could expand exports further. However, they warn that domestic policy disparities in VAT and taxation are slowing the industry’s growth, urging government reforms to ensure sustainable development.
