Where to buy stock in Bangladesh
The markets sellers here actually buy from, by city and by what they sell.
These are areas, not shops we vouch for. We are telling you which market sells what and roughly what it costs, so you know where to start. We have not checked any single trader, and no money should change hands before you have seen the goods yourself. Every price here is an estimate and changes with the season.
City
What they sell
Dhaka
1 place
Nawabpur Road
Electronics and hardwareNawabpur Road, Old Dhaka
Electrical goods, wiring, tools, hardware, motors, pumps, and machine parts.
Estimate: well under retail on tools and electrical fittings. Ask about the warranty, because a lot of it is sold without one.
Shops are packed close together, which is good for comparing prices. Nothing much is labelled, so ask the price of the same item at three shops before you decide.
Know a good place we have missed?
Tell us and we will add it, so the next seller does not have to find it the hard way.
Stock sorted. Now where do people buy it?
A Facebook page is a start. A real shop with a cart and a checkout sells more, and it keeps selling while you sleep.
