A well-known personality performing responsibilities over a long time as a CEO of a multinational company in Bangladesh is Golam Mainuddin. This personality has been nominated as Chairman of BAT very recently. After performing responsibilities in tea trade for more than an era, he joined as Leaf Operations Manager of BAT Bangladesh in the year 1982. In the year 1985, he took responsibilities as Head of Leaf. In the subsequent year he secured membership of Board of Directors. Since the year 1997, he got promotion as Deputy Managing Director of this group. He gained wide success, by forestation through BTC’s Leaf Team, during his tenure. Under his leadership 2Cr. 70 lac seedlings were distributed and planted. BTC received Prime Minister’s prize in the year 1993 in recognition of this contribution by him. Despite being an international tobacco company, BAT directed an anti-smoking campaign with children. Apart from that he played significant role in exporting Bangladeshi tobacco abroad. As a result of such initiatives Bangladesh at present grows tobacco leaves worth more than Tk.625 Cr. a year and exports tobacco worth Tk.125 Cr. a year. Under his leadership BAT so far distributed 5.5 Cr seedlings, which is the biggest forestation program of the country under private initiative. This executive personality recently on being appointed as Chairman of BAT, took the responsibility to transform it into a more dynamic institute. From next 3rd August he will perform responsibilities as Chairman. Golam Mainuddin represented BAT Bangladesh, in different forums including Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce, Bangladesh Employer’s Federation, and Bangladesh Cigarette Manufacturers Association. This candid caring active man with profound love for the soil and human beings has been nominated as one of the best persons of the year 2007 of Arthokatha. Sincere greetings and wishes to him from the family of Arthokatha.

In economic and social rebuilding of Bangladesh, Mr. Mainuddin will have more robust role-we expect so.
