Three educated friends, Mainul Islam, Mithun, and Masum from Bholahat upazila in Chapainawabganj, are producing 'mango peel tea' by processing discarded mango peels, which they claim is the first such commercial initiative in the country.
Currently, the tea is sold at Tk 2,000 to Tk 4,000 per kg depending on quality and packaging, generating curiosity among local buyers. Although local technology is used in this waste-to-resource initiative, large-scale production is hindered due to a lack of capital and modern technology.
Bholahat Upazila Agriculture Officer Sultan Ali and District Agricultural Marketing Officer Mominul and others see great potential in this agricultural initiative, noting that with proper quality control and support, it could be exported internationally.
