58 Bangladeshi exhibitors represented the nation at the fair. In Hall 12.0 (Dining), industry leaders such as Paragon Ceramics, Artisan Ceramics, and Protik Ceramics showcased their products.

 Additionally, other notable companies, including BD Creation, Prokritee, Dhaka Handicraft, RFL Plastic, and Golden Jute, were featured in Halls 10.1, 10.4, 11.0, and 11.1 (Giving & Living).

After India the Bangladesh participation was the biggest from South Asia with a wide range of products. Bangladesh has been participating in Ambiente for many years and a number of industries have been developed from this participation such as ceramics and jute products. 

The 'Export Promotion Bureau' has been supporting the growth of exports in Handicrafts, Decorative Items, and Kitchen Accessories by providing subsidized stalls. 

This initiative allows small and medium exporters, including SK Handicrafts, Saidpur Enterprises, and Craft & Design, to exhibit their products at the world's largest consumer fair, thereby enhancing their export opportunities.

Bangladesh, renowned for its expertise in manufacturing jute and handicrafts, is showcasing its unique creations at Ambiente.
