The Bangladesh Economic Zones Authority (Beza) has secured $65.1 million in fresh investment commitments for the National Special Economic Zone (NSEZ) after signing separate land lease agreements with Golden Oil Mills Ltd and Delta API Ltd.
The agreements were signed at Beza's conference room in the capital's Agargaon today (5 July).
Under the agreements, Golden Oil Mills will invest $52.8 million on 20 acres of land to establish manufacturing facilities for food products, frozen foods, ice cream, specialty oils and fats, packaging materials, and electronics. The project is expected to create employment for around 6,000 people.
