H&M Men’s Swimwear Mid-Length Leg





This is spring break season in the United States and Canada. Family with their kids are all heading to warmer places and near water. This is also a hot season for swimwear sales and most stores are already sold out of popular sizes. I was at the H&M store to pickup a swimwear to replace my decade old outdates baggy and long swim pants. It was hard to find the size but I was pleasantly surprised to find most of them are made in Bangladesh. Swimwear was not something that Bangladesh was making when I bought my last pair a decade ago. 

These swim pants are nicely fitted, not too baggy and not too tight and they are little bit low rise which is what's in style now. I also liked all the patterns and colors. You can't go wrong going to H&M if you need swimwear now and don't want to pay outrageous price.

Pran Kalijeera Aromatic Rice




Spotted this at a local Indian grocery store. Pran has become a well known brand not just for Bangladeshis but the entire south Asian diasporas. This is not the cheapest rice but Kalijeera is a finer and smaller grain rice with wonderful aroma and great taste. This is a finer rice and you will know once you try it.

If you are looking for really good quality dress shirt without paying outrageous price, this is the brand to get. Cat & Jack is a Target store brand and I think they only sell them at Target in the United States. The fabric is really good and soft and they are well made. Of course, this is made in Bangladesh.

Crown Portland Composite Cement

Crown cement brand is part of M.I. Cement Factory Limited and a company with national awards for export. Bangladesh is now the world's 40th largest market with demand for cement for never ending construction all over the country. Just 30 years ago, almost 100% of the demand was met through importing cement and now that completely changed. Bangladesh has surplus cement that is exported to primarily neighboring countries like Sri Lanka and India. Here is a very interesting article on booming cement industry of Bangladesh - https://tbsnews.net/economy/bangladeshs-cement-industry-booming.
