DHAKA: Bashundhara Group chairman Ahmed Akbar Sobhan hoped that nearly 100 percent of households will use the Liquefied Petroleum (LP) gas within 5 to 7 years and it would help preserve the natural gas of the country.

Ahmed Akbar Sobhan was addressing the distributors’ conference of Bashundhara LP Gas at International Convention Center, Banshundhra (ICCB) on Thursday (Sep 27).

Hundreds of LP gas distributors and members of their families from several districts and Bashundara Group officials joined the program. 

Bashundhara Group vice chairmen Safiat Sobhan and Safwan Sobhan attended the program as guests. Ahmed Akbar Sobhan handed over the best distributor award for 2017-18 to winners. 

Chairman Akbar Sobhan said, “We launched the LP gas in a bid to reduce pressure on our natural gas. No other country uses natural gas for cooking. I hope that LP gas will be used by nearly 100 percent households within 5 to 7 years.” 

“We are now internationally recognized as a super brand. This achievement belongs to you. I am grateful and honored to be associated with you. With your efforts, we will make the county’s economy stronger. I believe that businessmen are the one who will develop the country and expand its economic periphery,” he said.

He also urged to strengthen the marketing system of Bashundhara LP gas by maintaining good relations with field officials and distributors.
