Frankfurt, 7 February 2026 — One of the world’s leading international consumer goods and lifestyle trade fairs, Ambiente Fair 2026, has commenced in Frankfurt, Germany. This year, a total of thirty-four (34) Bangladeshi companies are participating in the fair, showcasing a diverse range of products.

Among them, five companies are participating under the direct management of the Export Promotion Bureau (EPB) of Bangladesh: TARANGO, Jute Crafts BD, MAAF Craft and Fashion, Sonali Aansh Industries Limited, and ECO Crave Limited.

Through handicrafts, jute and eco-friendly products, home décor, lifestyle items, and sustainable consumer goods, Bangladeshi exhibitors are presenting the diversity, aesthetic value, creativity, innovative capacity, and competitive strength of Bangladesh’s creative industries in the international market.

With the participation of thousands of exhibitors and buyers from across the globe, Ambiente Fair 2026 is widely regarded as a significant platform for creating new market opportunities in the consumer goods sector, showcasing sustainable and innovative products, and expanding international business networks.

The Ambassador of Bangladesh to Germany, Mr. Md. Zulkar Nain, along with the Commercial Counsellor of the Bangladesh Embassy, Mr. Chowdhury Md. Golam Rabbee, visited the fair and exchanged views with participating Bangladeshi companies as well as international buyers and sellers. The Ambassador highlighted the growing demand in the European market for environmentally friendly, sustainable, and internationally compliant products. He emphasized the importance of not only retaining Bangladesh’s existing market share in Europe but also expanding into new markets through product diversification and innovative design. He also called for ensuring compliance while maintaining high standards of product quality and safety in production and export activities.

Participating Bangladeshi companies reported strong business interest and promising prospects as a result of their participation in Ambiente Fair 2026. Many exhibitors were engaged in direct business discussions and meetings with international buyers. However, some companies noted challenges in meeting full buyer demand due to limited production capacity. Against the backdrop of ongoing global economic challenges, the strong interest shown by international buyers in Bangladeshi products is undoubtedly very encouraging.
