In 1985, Singer Bangladesh transformed
from a single product sewing machine company into a multi-product
consumer durable company. As part of its global diversification
and expansion strategy, Singer stepped into manufacturing
and marketing of domestic and industrial cables in 2006.
At present, nearly one third of the household
in the country have access to electricity. It is imperative
that considering the capacity utilization and growth, there
is a rapid increase of demand of electricity and electrical
cables for flow of electricity.
Real estate sector is another first growing
industry in Bangladesh. Approximately 10% of the total cost
in this sector is spent behind cables. Singer has entered
into cable business with reliable and quality cables to
ensure that the investment behind cable/wire is worthy of
its cost.
A new cable manufacturing plant with most
modern machineries combined with the sophisticated QC lab
was established at Singer Manufacturing Complex at Savar,
Dhaka. The factory is equipped to manufacture cables conforming
with Bangladesh and International Standards. Singer cables
already comply with ISO 9001: 2000 and BSTI standards.
Singer has developed a completely new
dealer channel for marketing of cables. With an objective
of making Singer cables available at door steps of customers,
Singer cables is available at more than 300 dealer stores
and selected Singer outlets.
