Daewoo

Daewoo appears in Getting entrepreneurial in Korea (Summer School) as the South Korean company that partnered with Abdul Majid Chowdhury to train Bangladeshi workers and managers for export-oriented garment production. The source links Daewoo’s incentives to the Multi-Fiber Arrangement: because Korean textile exports faced quota limits, production through Bangladesh created a way to keep serving export demand.

The source’s Daewoo branch is important because it turns development transfer into a concrete firm-to-firm mechanism. Textile Knowledge Transfer moves through training, factory routines, and cross-cultural adjustment, not only through abstract capital or policy advice.
