In his address, Chairman Md Alamgir Kabir said that despite economic volatility, higher bank interest rates and inflation during fiscal year 2024–2025, the company focused on improving production efficiency, controlling costs and maintaining product quality. He said GPH Ispat would continue to prioritise innovation, research and development, quality assurance and customer satisfaction to ensure sustainable growth and long-term shareholder value.
Group Chairman and Managing Director Mohammed Jahangir Alam said the closure of government projects and slower construction activity reduced domestic demand for construction materials, particularly MS rods. He said the company continued efforts to raise construction standards, highlighting its 600-grade rebar, GPH One cut-and-bend service and partnerships supplying advanced construction solutions.
Additional Managing Director Mohammed Almas Shimul said protecting shareholder interests remains a top priority, with management focused on improving factory efficiency and expanding sales and marketing. Independent Director Safiul Alam Khan Chowdhury also addressed the meeting.
