Dhaka/IBNS: Singapore's FMCG conglomerate Believe Pte Ltd has invested USD 8 mln in the beauty and skincare e-commerce startup OHSOGO.
It was launched by the State Minister for Information and Communication Technology Zunaid Ahmed Palak.

"Also with the Government’s latest interest in the expansion and development of the beauty and skincare market, it is just a matter of time before the market flourishes paving way for beauty and skincare brands to explore the market potential in Bangladesh. We are elated to support OHSOGO on this journey."
