The government is committed to the nation to boost up industrialization, accelerate export and poverty alleviation through employment generation to achieve economic emancipation of the country. Accordingly, the Bangladesh Export Processing Zones Authority Act, 1980 was passed in the Parliament. Bangladesh EPZs Authority is an organization which has been working beneath the guidance and leadership of the honorable Prime Minister of the country. BEPZA has been empowered for creation, development, operation and management of Export Processing Zones (EPZ). From the inception, BEPZA is engaged in attracting and facilitating foreign and local investment in the EPZs of Bangladesh. The primary function of an EPZ is to provide a special enclave where the investors would find a congenial investment climate free from cumbersome procedures. Chittagong the first EPZ was established in 1983 as the pioneer for investors. Observing its astounding success, Dhaka EPZ became operational in the year 1993. Afterwards six new EPZs namely Mongla, Comilla, Ishwardi, Uttara (Nilphamari), Adamjee and Karnaphuli have been set up and these EPZs are operating successfully in full swing; which gradually turned EPZs of Bangladesh as "Bonanza for the Investors".
