Bangladesh\u2019s export earnings recorded a significant double-digit month-on-month growth of 11.22 percent in January 2026, reflecting a positive shift in trade momentum despite persistent global economic challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the latest trade data, export earnings for January 2026 reached US$4,413.65 million, compared to $3,968.28 million in December 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the overall July\u2013January period of FY 2025\u201326, total exports amounted to $28,410.52 million.
