11. Performance
(Quality Control)
Key areas of QC Inspection for
furniture are:-
a)Daily follow up
b)Pre-production inspection
c)Packaging inspection
d)Relevant lab testing
e)On-site test and check through
load and impact test
f)Visual inspection against CAD
design

12. Benefits
 Low labor cost
 Workers are easy to train
 Backward linkage factories are
growing
 The main source of raw materials
of the factory are artificial
wood, iron box and pipes, foam
and color are very close to the
factory
 Scope of further expansion as
well as vertical expansion due
to land price rises.

13. Problems encountered
 Majority raw materials are imported;
not easy to get
 Frequently disrupting electricity
 Few sophisticated machineries needs
to be required from Bangshal; so
this becomes difficult in sometimes
 Few raw materials like handle, push
lock etc. are needed to be purchased
from Karwan Bazar or Gulshan and
that’s also a difficult part
 Poor road condition make it very
expensive to send products from
Dhaka to Chattogram port

14.  Furniture industry started as
cottage based industry
 Now, exporting to US and EU
 This industry needs
concentration and care by the
Government
Conclusion

15. Recommendations
 To improve the quality of workers there
should be a provision of training
 To avoid the sudden crush of any
machinery there should be alternative
method of operation and quick repair of
the machinery
 To improve the quality of production few
more machineries should be installed
 To prevent frequent load shedding, HATIL
may installed a small scaled power
generation unit
