History and Experience

Our history and experience in the fashion business goes back to 1980s when our Managing Director M. A. Bashar with one of his friends started importing suiting fabric from Japan and wholesale the fabric to local retailers. With the growing demand of his imported fabric selection, he begun manufacturing suiting fabric in partnership with local textile mills and launched a brand Pragati Suiting.

Soon after in 1987, Mr. Bashar decided to buy a weaving plant “Unifill Textile Mills Ltd.” at the birthplace of number of world-famous fabrics like Muslin & Jamdani located at Narayanganj. After the takeover, he refurbished the mill with European warping and sizing machine and 104 Saurer shuttle looms from Japan. The company quickly became Bangladesh’s leading suiting and bottom wear fabric manufacturer.

In 1994, the quality reputation of the company leads to win first ever nomination to manufacture and supply military wear for Bangladesh Army which was previously imported from Pakistan and China.

Following the successful supply of military wear, the confidence in own quality and commitment was a great guidance for the company to supply export quality fabrics for global fashion retailers. Since 1997 the company has exported more than 120 million meters of fabric for high street fashion brands.

In 2018, the company built the most modern dyeing and printing fabric manufacturing facility equipped with latest Swiss, German, Italian and Chinese machinery with a capacity of 3 million yards per month. The project has designed to offer the best brands everything they can dream of in woven fashion fabric with the value for money. We are consistently investing in the best tools and operation procedures by bringing in industry experts to furnish us with best practices and latest technology.

Recently in January 2020, the company has made a strategic decision to rename the company as TRU Fabrics Ltd. instead of Unifill Dyeing Printing & Finishing Mills Ltd.
