15. Client Testimonial
“My first introduction with Salam Associates started back in 2007, with a soft inquiry about C&F
or Ex-Im matter. I knew my project is a relatively big project and wanted to have far more above
standard than products available in Bangladesh. I never expected there can be someone like
Improvising Your Dream

16. Salam Associates to offer exactly the services, I was looking for. Actually, Salam Associates offers
more than expected. I didn’t think likely door to door services which they offer without any
hesitations.
In my first meeting with owner of Salam Associates, I was convinced to pay a visit to them in the
following week to Chittagong to get a feel about their products range. It was very impressive
and I instantly made a plan to visit China with them. It would have been very difficult for me to
manage EX-Im, LC opening, C&F, and Customs etc on my own. I could simply pay attention on
my project and interiors by giving all headaches to Salam Associates. By doing this, I could save a
substantial amount to skip interior designers and architect. I couldn’t find any solution from any
architect in Dhaka to offer contemporary designs to my taste; I prefer to select my own things.
While visiting China to select items, it has turned out to be a business plus pleasure trip. I always
enjoy the busy time we spend together. Picking up bits and pieces of Chinese and hard bargains.
I know, many people think of negative about trade with China. But I never had any issue with my
items and find Chinese very professional dealing with business transactions. I am an Australian-
Bangladeshi and follow very high standard of business procedures. With the assistance of Salam
Associates, I feel more confident to check on anybody in China before placing final order.
I always mention to Salam Associates that my serviced apartment project (Contemporary
Heights Ltd), would never been as I have ended up decorating it to the finest, without their help.
I will always be thankful to their support and services.
I will never forget that owner missed marriage anniversaries and Child’s first Birthday to match
with my business dates to travel with me in China. Lots of sacrifices to serve their clients. This
will not go wasted. One important thing to mention, all members of Salam Associates are from
reputed Family and with sound education background, all of them are fantastic people to deal
with. They have lots of prospects in other business ventures. I wish them all the best in their
future endeavors.”
