Speaking at its Iftar on Sunday, he also wished its “continued success”.

The chamber started officially in June 2003 with only 43 members.

Now it represents more than 450 companies from Bangladesh and Germany.

The two-way trade between the countries is more than $5 billion with Bangladesh’s exports making up most of it.

German Ambassador in Dhaka Thomas Prinz, and BGCCI President Tawfiq Ali were also present at the Iftar, among others, at The Westin Hotel.
