Tiivistelmä
The main aim of this thesis was to make a comparison between Bangladesh and Finland's denim business. Several kinds of literature and theories were reviewed when collecting secondary information to complement the study. Questionnaires were also used in the collection of data. Therefore, both primary and secondary data collection methods were applied in this thesis.
The research found out that a great disparity exists in the denim business in Bangladesh and Finland. For instance, while technological use in the denim sector is considered to cause unemployment in Finland, Bangladesh thinks otherwise. Besides, the key problems facing the denim sector in Bangladesh and Finland differ. However, certain features are similar between the two countries such as the demographics of the employees in the sector. In both countries, it is the women that make up the majority of the employed.
Recommendations made at the end of this thesis could assist garment industries across the globe to identify future challenges and ways to overcome them. Some of the recommendations given at the end of the thesis include the need for training employers and employees on business ethics and communication skills. Conclusions were then drawn to sum up the whole thesis.
