Bangladesh has secured the second position among countries successfully exporting value-added products to the U.S., trailing Cambodia and outpacing Vietnam, according to the latest IMF report. Cambodia leads with a 21% growth in value-added exports, while Bangladesh recorded a 20% increase, primarily driven by ready-made garments, leather goods, and handicrafts. The IMF highlights that Asian countries heavily depend on markets in Europe and the U.S. for foreign currency through exports and remittances. Strengthening value addition in products enables higher export opportunities, fostering competition among exporters. While Sri Lanka maintained steady exports, other nations saw a decline. Countries like Japan, Malaysia, South Korea, India, and Thailand lagged in boosting value-added export growth. The report also kept Bangladesh’s GDP growth forecast at 4.9% for the current fiscal year.

Bangladesh Ranks Second in Exporting Value-Added Products to the United States

Three countries have successfully leveraged value-added product exports in the U.S. market, with Cambodia leading, Bangladesh in second place, and Vietnam in third. Countries with a strong presence in the U.S. market have not fully capitalized on this opportunity. Sri Lanka has maintained a consistent export flow to the U.S. but has not increased it, while exports from other countries have declined. This information comes from a report released Friday by the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
