Apparel Promoters Ltd Chairman Mostafizur Rahman, Managing Director Mujibur Rahman, and Directors (Mask Unit) Peter Dong and Nicole Shine were present in the event, among others. Mostafizur Rahman said from the very beginning, the market of face masks faced challenges as global mask production was insufficient compared to the overnight surge in demand, due to the Covid-19 pandemic. "Now we are here to provide quality masks to tackle the spread of Covid-19 both in local and global markets,” he added. The company has already finalized a deal for shipping 25 million pieces of KN95 masks to the US, he said. Smart Smile masks, on the other hand, will ensure at least 95% PFE and BFE, he added.
