Even the purchasing decision of buying cigarettes didn’t get impacted due to the second lockdown for Covid-19. Hence, we believe that the company will not be impacted due to the 3rd phase of lockdown in the coming quarter. The company is also focusing on export opportunities by deciding to invest Tk 3,222.0 million to set up a factory in Savar.
