During the visit, Beza officials briefed the high commissioner about various development activities, investment proposals, industrial installations, and the one-stop service centre and service management provided by Beza.

In the meeting, the British envoy praised Beza's work and thanked the present government for its initiative in building the planned industrial city.

He added that the UK was keen to expand its investment in Bangladesh and that he would keep Beza's progress informed to the British government as well as investors.

He remarked that the UK government will encourage its business community to invest in Bangladesh.

The industrial city, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Shilpa Nagar (BSMSN), is being constructed in an area of 30,000 acres of land.

The industrial city will have facilities such as power plants, seaports, central waste management and water treatment plants, residential areas, commercial areas, universities and hospitals, among others.
