Newly appointed British trade envoy to Bangladesh Baroness Rosie Winterton of Doncaster has said she looks forward to working closely with the Department for Business and Trade, the interim government and businesses in Bangladesh to further develop the key trade partnership between Bangladesh and the United Kingdom.

"I am delighted to be appointed as the UK Government’s Trade Envoy to Bangladesh. I know how important Bangladesh is for business, jobs and consumers in both markets, with total trade volumes of over £3 billion and opportunities for growth," she said on her appointment as Trade Envoy to Bangladesh.

Earlier, the British High Commission announced Baroness Rosie Winterton of Doncaster DBE as the new United Kingdom Trade Envoy to Bangladesh.

She will play a key role in strengthening trade and investment ties between Bangladesh and the UK.
