RESOURCE HUB - 2018
< < GEO CHEM READY TO LAUNCH
SERVICES IN BANGLADESH
< < STAGE ERP SETS UP OFFICE IN
BANGLADESH MARKET
April 2018

With the Bangladesh industry growing by leaps
and bounds, scope for the service industry to
support this growth in tune with global norms
is also growing. Many international brands
in the Testing, Inspection & Certification (TIC)
business have already found success in the
country, but the gap in terms of industry need is
still wide. Realising this as an opportunity, Geo
Chem Consumer Product Services is gearing up
to enter the market with a complete package
of solutions and services that will provide a
unique customer experience to the industry. The
package of services will also include audits, waste
management and safety solutions.

The upfront approach to business that companies
in Bangladesh have, is driving many technology
providers to offer solutions that not only add
value to the production processes but also to
the running of the factories more effectively,
and with better real time control. One such
company that is aggressively targeting the
country with its customised ERP solutions, is
Ecotech Software, owner of the hugely popular
STAGE ERP. The company has been working
in Bangladesh for sometime now and sensing
the huge opportunities that exist as more and
more factories are exploring options, an office
is being set up in Dhaka to better service the
customers. The company is in the final stages
of implementing an end-to-end solution for knit
composite at Arabi Fashion, a part of the Bengal
Hurricane Group.

“We are a company that is from South Asia
and the basic temperament of people in these
countries is very similar. So while the West-
ern companies may not empathise with local
concerns, Geo Chem understands and makes
effort to find solutions that are in synergy with
the mindset of the region… Our vision is clear
and we are ready for all challenges…”

“The project will
be our flagship for
the country as we
have done a lot of
customisation and
in the process have
understood the
very specific needs
of the Bangladesh
industry, which are
different from other
countries… One of
the biggest reasons
for our success has
been our ability to
work closely with the
customers to give
them an ERP system
that meets every op-
erational and busi-
ness need.”
