The outlet, located in Sector 9, was inaugurated on Thursday, 5 March 2026, through a ribbon-cutting ceremony led by Syed Joynul Abedin, chief executive officer of Akij Venture Limited. Senior officials of Metro Mart were also present.
Metro Mart said the outlet will offer locally produced goods at affordable prices without compromising on quality. Unlike many superstores that rely heavily on imported products, the chain said it aims to bring quality domestic products and safe, organic food closer to everyday consumers.
Guided by the slogan "Made in Bangladesh", the company said it is working to expand the reach of locally made products while discouraging dependence on adulterated or substandard imported goods.
