Bangladesh\u2019s appetite for formally processed poultry products is steadily increasing, driven by urban growth and changing lifestyles. In a span of 6 years, daily poultry meat consumption grew from 17.3 grams per person in 2016 to 26.2 grams in 2022 signaling both improved nutritional access and the growing popularity of convenient, ready-to-cook options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The shift opens up exciting avenues for the poultry processing industry to scale up and better serve a fast-changing market landscape. However, to fully unlock this potential, key challenges must be addressed\u2014including the need for formal slaughterhouses, better access to finance, improved cold chain infrastructure and a convenient certification process.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To this end, on April 9, 2025, the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Bangladesh, together with Larive International, LightCastle Partners, and the Bangladesh Poultry Industries Central Council (BPICC) hosted a poultry processing workshop at Renaissance Dhaka. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The session was part of the ongoing PoultryTechBangladesh<\/a> partnership aimed at facilitating increased trade and investment between the Netherlands and Bangladesh. Marel<\/a> – one of the consortium members of the project and a leading global provider of industrial food processing equipment, conducted the session.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over 30 officials and representatives from various organizations\u2014including Paragon, Aftab, Bengal Meat, AG Food, Pran, Provita, EON Foods, Quality Integrated Agro and ACI Godrej\u2014participated in the workshop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Mr.<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Mostafa Kamal, Secretary, BPICC delivered the opening speech, emphasizing the importance of improving the poultry processing industry to enhance both food quality and export capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, Mr. Subramani Horiharan, Account Manager at Marel delivered a keynote presentation highlighting the company\u2019s operations and offering an overview of the challenges and driving forces in commercial poultry processing. He emphasized the importance of scalable and modular processing facilities that allow for flexibility and future expansion, as well as the adoption of advanced technologies to optimize processing systems for higher efficiency, reduced waste, and improved product quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, Mr. Subramani outlined key considerations for new entrants in the poultry processing industry, including investment in adaptable infrastructure, compliance with food safety and environmental standards and integration of energy-efficient technologies.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ms. Amber van Spronsen concluded the session by expressing optimism for sustained and enhanced collaboration between Dutch and Bangladeshi poultry enterprises, particularly in the areas of knowledge sharing and technology transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also present at the event were Ms. Ainan Tajrian, Business Consultant; Ms. Naziba Ali, Business Analyst at LightCastle Partners; and Mr. Md Sazzad Hossain, Adviser for Communication and Media at BPICC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
