Working for a greener and healthier Bangladesh

Being encouraged by the Company Chairman Mr. Muhammed Ali and board directors, the CSR Committee of SMC has been working to make positive contributions to the wider community and environment in which it operates. In the context of diminishing trees and forests in the country, it has taken a tree plantation project lately at a limited scale and wants to contribute steadily in the coming days for a greener Bangladesh. As part of the initiative, it has planted saplings in Narsingdi Eidgah and surrounding areas and also in Banani Field at Road # 1, Block I in Dhaka during June and July this year.

SMC also believes in supporting organizations and enthusiastic young activists who are striving to make Bangladesh healthier. In June this year, the Company donated 600 sachets of ORSaline-N to Women Care Bangladesh that provides healthcare to female garment workers. Led by young university students, the organization subsequently arranged a health camp at Impress Printing, Kamarpara, Turag in Uttara and delivered 500 sachets of ORSaline-N along with other healthcare products to 165 female garment workers.
