The food and beverage industry in Bangladesh is rapidly growing due to urbanization, rising incomes, and changing consumer preferences. From traditional street food to international fast-food chains, the sector is diverse. However, challenges like food adulteration, lack of hygiene, and poor quality control remain serious concerns. Contaminated food leads to health issues, while an unregulated market affects consumer trust.
Solutions
Ensuring food safety requires stricter regulations, regular inspections, and harsher penalties for food adulteration. Promoting hygiene in street food stalls and restaurants through awareness programs can improve standards. Encouraging organic farming and sustainable packaging can enhance food quality. Additionally, adopting smart food tracking systems and promoting local food brands can strengthen the industry’s reputation and consumer trust.
