The Trading Corporation of Bangladesh (TCB) is preparing to expand its operations ahead of the upcoming month of Ramadan. The state-run entity has set a target to include 6 lakh additional beneficiaries under its distribution programme.
Furthermore, the corporation is planning to increase the import of essential commodities, including edible oil, pulses, and sugar. This initiative is designed to facilitate open-market sales (OMS), allowing consumers who do not possess TCB smart cards to purchase goods at government-subsidised rates during the Ramadan period.
