Though there are many recognitions for the contributions of businesses, there is no big recognition for the marketers who play great roles in taking the businesses to the consumers\u2019 doors. In regard to that, Channel <\/span>i, most popular private TV channel and Bangladesh Brand Forum, the uppermost brand & marketing platform have jointly taken initiative to honor Marketing professionals and legends who have made a change.<\/span><\/p>\n

Marketing has always played a key role <\/span>for businesses to drive the economy and help steer social progress and societal development. The practice of modern marketing in Bangladesh started truly from the 80s and have come a long way since then, as social media and digital platforms dominate today’s marketing world. At this critical juncture of transformation, it is important that we celebrate the wisdom of traditional marketing discipline as we strive to evolve into the digital era. For the very first year of this initiative, Mr. Syed Alamgir, Managing Director, ACI Consumer Brands Limited was awarded.<\/span><\/p>\n

Syed Alamgir started his career in 1976 in the then British pharmaceutical company May & Baker, which is now known as Sanofi Bangladesh. Throughout his career journey, Mr. Almagir has held major positions in several companies. He started working with ACI in 1998 and has established it as the top consumer goods manufacturing company in the last two decades. With his firm leadership, different products of ACI Consumer Brands have gained remarkable acceptance of the people from different walks of life. The concept of 100% halal soap, one of his innovations in the FMCG category, has amazed the great marketing professionals around the world. Philip Kotler, famous Professor of Marketing, has included a case study on the concept of halal soap in his \u2018The Principles of Marketing\u2019 book.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
