Diversity in business & entrepreneurship helped Bashundhara Group (BG) to become the leader amongst the business houses in Bangladesh directly employing a workforce not less than 50 thousand which indirectly covered livelihood of half a million people. BG has started operation as a real estate venture known as “Bashundhara” under the aegis of East-West property development Ltd in 1987. This project turned out to be a very successful one & had helped foster the growth of trust & confidence of the urban people in “Bashundhara” Dhaka’s burgeoning population, coupled with a conspicuously slow growth of housing led to the landmark success of Bashundhara. Bashundhara geared up to invest in new fields, including production of cement, paper, tissue, steel, LPG among others. BG now has over 20 major concerns located in different areas of the country.
