# The 30 largest manufacturers in Dhaka

Tamtam tracks 194 manufacturers headquartered in Dhaka. This list ranks the 30 largest by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by PRAN-RFL Group, Walton Group and ACI Limited. Their median headcount is 2,061. Half of them were founded in 1981 or later.

The manufacturers in Dhaka are primarily large, diversified conglomerates with interests across various sectors. Companies like PRAN-RFL Group are involved in food and beverage, agro-processing, and engineering, while Walton Group specializes in electronics, steel, and textiles. Akij Group and Bashundhara Group also operate across multiple industries, including manufacturing and real estate. Many of these firms, such as ACI Limited and Renata PLC, have a significant presence in pharmaceutical manufacturing.

A notable pattern among these companies is their long-standing presence in the market, with many founded between the 1940s and 1990s. For instance, Square Pharmaceuticals PLC was founded in 1958, and Beximco Pharmaceuticals PLC in 1976, indicating a mature industrial base. The predominance of pharmaceutical manufacturing is a clear cluster, with companies like Incepta Pharmaceuticals Ltd. and The ACME Laboratories Ltd. contributing to this sector.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
