Pragati Mahila Bahuudeshya Sahakari Samiti Ltd. was founded on December 19, 2022, with a vision

to empower women and provide them with the tools they need to become financially independent
and self-reliant. Established as a cooperative society, our organization is committed to the holistic
development of women through skill-building, entrepreneurship, and access to opportunities that
facilitate social and economic growth. Over the years, we have worked tirelessly to uplift women from
different communities, helping them to gain control over their lives and contribute meaningfully to the
welfare of their families and society at large.
Our primary objective is to support self-employment for women by offering them various skill
development programs. These programs are designed to cater to the needs and abilities of women
across a wide range of sectors, including textiles, handicrafts, sewing, embroidery, food processing,
and other vocational skills. Through these initiatives, we not only provide women with specialized
training but also equip them with the confidence and resources to start their own businesses, thereby
promoting entrepreneurship and self-sufficiency.
At Pragati Mahila Bahuudeshya Sahakari Samiti Ltd., we believe that skill development is a powerful
tool for women’s empowerment. We focus on practical, hands-on training that enables women to
learn skills that have direct market value. By equipping them with the necessary tools, knowledge, and
exposure, we open doors for them to generate income, support their families, and create a better
future for themselves. Our training programs are carefully curated to ensure that women from all
backgrounds, including those from rural and underserved areas, have equal access to opportunities
that help them succeed in their chosen fields.
In addition to fostering self-employment, Pragati Mahila Bahuudeshya Sahakari Samiti Ltd. plays an
essential role in providing goods and services to society at reasonable prices. Through the hard work
and dedication of the women in our cooperative, we produce a variety of products ranging from
handcrafted items to food products, all of which are sold to the community at affordable rates. By
doing so, we are not only ensuring the financial independence of women but also contributing to the
availability of quality, locally made goods that meet the needs of the wider public.
Our commitment to fair trade, ethical practices, and sustainable development drives us to maintain
the highest standards of quality while ensuring that our prices remain accessible to all. This helps foster
a sense of social responsibility among consumers and creates a ripple effect of empowerment, where
each purchase made from our cooperative directly contributes to the growth of women entrepreneurs
and their families.
Pragati Mahila Bahuudeshya Sahakari Samiti Ltd. is more than just an organization; it is a movement
that stands for the collective advancement of women. We aim to break down the barriers of poverty,
illiteracy, and gender discrimination that have historically held women back from reaching their full
potential. Our work has touched the lives of countless women, and we are proud of the positive impact
we continue to make in communities across the region.
As we look to the future, our goal is to expand our reach, offer more diverse training programs, and
create an even larger network of women entrepreneurs who can contribute to the economic and social
well-being of society. Through education, collaboration, and continuous support, Pragati Mahila
Bahuudeshya Sahakari Samiti Ltd. will continue to be a catalyst for change, helping women build
brighter, more independent futures while serving the community at large
