A German delegation consisting of different business stakeholders arrived in Dhaka today (6 April) on a five-day visit that underscores Germany's "strong belief" in Bangladesh's economic potential and its commitment to expand bilateral trade to mutual benefit.

Germany remains one of Bangladesh's most significant economic partners, with total bilateral trade amounting to $9.81 billion in 2024, said the German Embassy in Dhaka.

The delegation includes representatives from the German Federal Foreign Office, the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action, Germany Trade & Invest (GTAI), the German Export Credit Agency (Euler Hermes), GIZ and company representatives.

The mission is coordinated by OAV – the German Asia-Pacific Business Association, a key network that promotes German business interests across Asia and serves as a strategic partner for German companies seeking to enter or expand in the region.

German Ambassador Achim Tröster welcomed the first such mission from Germany since the interim government took office.

"We appreciate the initiative by OAV to bring a delegation to Bangladesh at the exact right time, to witness first-hand the potential and opportunities that Bangladesh offers as well as the reform progress made," he said.

The delegation kicked off their visit with a briefing organised by the German Embassy in Dhaka.

They will take part in the Bangladesh Investment Summit 2025, being held in Dhaka from April 7-10 and organised by the Bangladesh Investment Development Authority (Bida) in partnership with the Chief Advisor's Office.

Bangladesh is set to host global investors and top executives as the Bangladesh Investment Summit 2025 kicks off on Monday, aiming to spotlight the country's evolving investment landscape, poised for transformative opportunities and unprecedented growth.
