Singer Bangladesh Limited, a subsidiary of Beko, flagship of Türkiye’s Koç Holding, held the ‘Grand Opening Ceremony’ of its state-of-the-art Home Appliances Plant on 30 January, 2025 Spanning 135,000 square meters, the new facility is a flagship project within BSEZ (Bangladesh Special Economic Zone) and will produce refrigerators, televisions, washing machines, air conditioners and other major appliances for the local market. By producing over 90% of its products domestically, the Home Appliances Plant will cater to the Bangladeshi market while positioning Bangladesh as a regional hub for consumer durables in the medium to long term. It will develop a robust local supplier ecosystem, significantly reducing dependence on imports in the sector. Plans are also underway to export products to neighboring countries in South Asia, further solidifying Singer Bangladesh’s role in the regional market.
The design of the new factory has been optimized to maximize natural daylight, with skylight roof surfaces being used for sustainable energy management. The new facility is solar-ready, and the installation of solar panels would prevent up to 60% of carbon emissions. Rainwater will be harvested and stored for use of grey water and for landscape irrigation. Energy monitoring systems will be used to ensure sustainability and quality targets are met. The construction of the plant has been carried out mainly using locally sourced and recycled materials.
