Bangladesh earns around US$ 100,000 through exporting frames and lenses for spectacles with a huge potential to increase the export of the item.
Commerce Minister Altaf Hossain Chowdhury Thursday apprised the potential of the emerging non-traditional industry at the seventh international optics fair at a local hotel, reports UNB.
He was inaugurating the 3-day fair titled "Bangla Optica 2005", organised by Bangladesh Optics Manufacturers Association. Some 28 manufacturers, including a few from South Korea, displayed their products at the fair.
