Provenance & notes
Founded 1989 per the official site (which states ~33-year journey at the 2024 first election). Md Shahriar (MD of Adzi Trims; reported variously as 'Mohammad Shahriar' / 'Al Shahriar') won BGAPMEA's first-ever direct election; new office bearers took charge 26 May 2024 for the 2024-26 term. The official website does not name the current president in machine-readable text, so leadership is confirmed via dated news sources. Member count not recorded: site cites ~2,100 industries but no exact membership figure from a dated authoritative source. An unverified later claim of an 'Abdul Kader Khan' presidency could not be confirmed and is not recorded.
