Bangladesh’s leading apparel manufacturer, Snowtex, has received two prestigious awards from global sporting goods retailer Decathlon at the South West Asia (SWA) Local Partners Forum 2026 held in Sri Lanka, highlighting the company’s excellence in partnership, operational performance, and sustainable manufacturing.
Snowtex Outerwear Limited was presented with the “10 Years of Excellence in Partnership” award in recognition of a decade-long successful collaboration with Decathlon, reflecting sustained business growth, trust, and strategic cooperation between the two organizations.
The company also received the “Excellence in Supply Chain Performance” award for demonstrating exceptional supply chain management capabilities, operational efficiency, and consistent on-time delivery performance across regional and global markets.
The awards were presented during Decathlon’s annual Local Partners Forum, which brings together manufacturing partners from across South West Asia to strengthen industry collaboration, align sourcing strategies, and promote operational excellence throughout the apparel value chain.
The latest recognition further reinforces Snowtex’s position as one of Bangladesh’s most respected apparel manufacturers. Over the years, the company has built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality products while maintaining global standards in sustainability, compliance, and responsible manufacturing.
Snowtex currently operates multiple advanced production facilities, including several LEED-certified green factories, and employs more than 23,000 people. Its product portfolio includes outerwear, sportswear, casualwear, rainwear, safety wear, and bottoms supplied to leading international brands and retailers worldwide.
With an annual turnover of approximately $300 million, the company continues to expand its global footprint through investments in technology, innovation, and sustainable manufacturing practices.
Snowtex’s commitment to environmental stewardship has also earned widespread recognition. The company has previously received the National Environment Award 2024, the President’s Award for Industrial Development, the National Productivity and Quality Excellence Award, and the National Export Trophy (Gold) for its contribution to Bangladesh’s export sector.
Its sustainability initiatives include advanced wastewater treatment systems, solar energy integration, waste reduction programs, and environmentally responsible production processes, positioning the company as a benchmark for green industrial development in Bangladesh.
Industry observers view the dual recognition from Decathlon as a significant achievement not only for Snowtex but also for Bangladesh’s apparel sector, showcasing the country’s growing capabilities in sustainable manufacturing, supply chain excellence, and value-added apparel production.
