The Trade Fair
Introduction: A Trade Fair is an
exhibition of commercial products in different styles in a special place. The
trade fair is organized internationally every year. It is held in Bangladesh in
winter, especially between December and January. It is not held on the birth and
death anniversary of any saintly person. It is held to pay importance to global
relations. Both national and international trading firms participate in such a
fair.
Nature of fair: A month-long
preparation is taken by the Trade Fair Committee under the instructions of the
Commerce Ministry of the country. The fair is also sponsored by national
and multi-national manufacturing companies to sell and advertise their
products. Traders from different countries set up their temporary stalls. Each of
the stalls is decently decorated and completely enlightened to attract visitors. All fancy and attractive goods are nicely displayed in the showrooms. Trade fair in Bangladesh is held at Sher-e-Bangla Nagar, Dhaka on a
large scale. The fair area is well protected. No viewer can break into the
wall. For gentle entrance, there are a few counters to book tickets. Ticketless
entrance for anyone is strictly prohibited. The stall owners and the salesman
