Abstract (summary)

Bangladesh has been successful in transforming itself from one of the poorest counties in the world to a lower-middle-income country in 50 years. The readymade garment sector has been a major driving force behind its growth and development. It has contributed to higher per-capita income and catalyzed social and economic development, structural transformation, and gender empowerment. Using exploratory data analysis and literature survey, this paper intends to investigate the reasons behind the rapid growth of the readymade garment sector in Bangladesh and its importance in promoting gender equality in Bangladesh.
