Cargo delivery from Bangladesh
Bangladesh is among the world's largest manufacturers of textiles and ready-made garments. TransGID arranges turnkey shipments from Bangladesh: from cargo pickup at the factory to delivery to the recipient's warehouse in Russia.
Many international brands set up production here due to low production costs and a developed garment industry.
For Russian companies, Bangladesh remains one of the most attractive markets for sourcing apparel, fabrics, home textiles, and consumer goods. The difference in purchase costs compared to other Asian countries makes it possible to significantly increase business margins.

Cargo Types
Groupage Cargo from Bangladesh (LCL)
If a consignment takes up just a few boxes or pallets, renting a dedicated container is not cost-effective.
We arrange cargo consolidation at the warehouse, inspect the packaging, and ship the goods together with consignments of other clients. This format helps reduce shipping costs and test new supplies without significant logistics expenses.
Container Shipping from Bangladesh (FCL)
Dedicated containers are used for large shipments.
20-foot containers are suitable for heavy equipment, metal, and dense cargo. 40-foot and High Cube containers are used for voluminous shipments.
Why Businesses Shift Procurement to Bangladesh
In recent years, Bangladesh has become one of the world's largest hubs of textile manufacturing.
Thousands of factories operate here, exporting to the US, Europe, and Asian countries.
For Russian companies, this is an opportunity to:
- reduce product purchasing costs;
- diversify suppliers;
- decrease dependence on the Chinese market;
- receive direct supplies from manufacturers.
The difference is particularly noticeable in apparel, knitwear, home textiles, and products for online marketplaces.
Bangladesh or China: Where to Buy More Profitably
In practice, many importers work simultaneously with China and Bangladesh, allocating purchases between the two countries depending on the product category.
- China:
- Maintains leadership in the production of equipment, electronics, and complex industrial products.
- Bangladesh:
- Wins where manual labor plays a major role. That is why many Russian companies purchase clothing, textiles, and light industry goods here, securing lower production costs.
What Goods Are Imported from Bangladesh
The bulk of shipments consists of:
- clothing and knitwear;
- fabrics and textile raw materials;
- home textiles;
- workwear;
- footwear;
- bags and accessories;
