Metrocomia South Asia is getting into the fashion arena with the development of a web site for the re-known Bangladeshi model, Ms. Bibi Rusell. The contact came through a trip that Mr. Sanjib Ahmad, our managing director in Bangladesh, made to India under a top management training program sponsored by DANIDA at the beginning of this year.

As Bangladesh Office manager says: “Business networking pays!” In India, he met one of the directors of the partner company that works with Art-Studio, a Danish company. Mr. Amarnath Reddy, Coordinator of the DANIDA PSD Program in BD was also there. It was Mr. Reddy who later introduced Mr. Sanjib to Mr. Kenneth Hansen in Bangladesh. Mr. Hansen is the director of Art–Studio, which is promoting Ms. Bibi Russell’s products in Europe.

Mr. Reddy recommended MSA to Mr. Hansen, as a possible the web-site developer for Ms. Bibi Russell. Art-Studio has the support of DANIDA under the principle of Fashion for Development, as the work that Ms. Bibi does not only promotes the country and a traditional industry but also contributes to alleviate poverty and empower the poor. 

The team for the project comprises: Danish Management Group Bangladesh for project managing, graphical design, content development, interface, system implementation andprogramming. The development is based on the Metrocomia CMS, and even though is not a big project will give us good exposure and contribute to our networking among the Danish companies that work in Bangladesh.
