He said FBCCI is working to establish an Institute for Technical and Vocational Education and Training to create skilled manpower who can work for industrial growth.
Oliveira too expressed his willingness to work together to upgrade Brazil’s business ties with Bangladesh, according to Bangla media reports. Bangladesh’s cotton is much cheaper than US cotton, but the quality is almost the same, he said.
Bangladeshi businesses could benefit by visiting the Federation of Industries of the state of Sao Paulo while options are there to build partnerships in other areas, he said.
Brazil has a burgeoning recycling sector, an area which the two nations can explore together, he added.
