Tamijuddin Textile Mills Limited has officially resumed production at its factory following a temporary shutdown caused by labour unrest. The company announced the resumption of operations on Saturday, July 18, 2026, after successful discussions and negotiations with the involved parties.
The textile company, which is listed on the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE), formally updated the exchange on Sunday regarding the situation.
Background of the Shutdown
The factory, located in Gazipur, had suspended its manufacturing activities starting July 13, 2026. According to the company, this decision was taken in accordance with Section 13(1) of the Bangladesh Labour Act, 2006, which allows for temporary layoffs in response to illegal work stoppages or labour unrest that threatens the safety of life and property.
The closure became a subject of regulatory scrutiny after a notice surfaced on social media on July 15 claiming the factory would remain shut until further notice. Following this, the DSE requested an official explanation from the company on July 16.
Current Status and Financial Impact
Management confirmed that the situation has improved due to constructive dialogue and coordinated efforts among all stakeholders, enabling the plant to restart operations on July 18.
Regarding the financial impact of the production halt, the company stated that it is currently in the process of evaluating the extent of the losses incurred during the period of inactivity.
Company Profile
Established in 1970 and listed on the stock market in 1992, Tamijuddin Textile Mills currently maintains a paid-up capital of Tk 33.07 crore. General investors (excluding directors and sponsors) hold a 38.77% stake in the company. As of the close of trading last Thursday, the company’s share price stood at Tk 135.
