This sector helps in creating employment, reducing poverty and empowering women and contributing in export. Its contribution to the economy of Bangladesh is inevitable. But it is a matter of fact that still this sector is surrounded by a lot of challenges i.e. poor infrastructure, lack of skilled work- force, unavailability of loan facility, weak backward linkage, high dependency on foreign experts etc. Among all those challenges the absence of managerial skill and technical skills to cope up with the 4th industrial revolution and circular economy is vital.
