Unmasking the Middleman: How Traditional Supply Chains Exploit Bangladeshi Farmers
An economic analysis of the 'Aratdar' syndicate system in Bangladesh and how direct-to-consumer digital marketplaces are dismantling food monopolies.

Research, Data, and The Human Impact
These intermediaries, often referred to as 'Beparis' and 'Aratdars', control the transport and wholesale markets. They provide informal, high-interest loans to desperate farmers before the harvest, effectively trapping them in a cycle of debt and forcing them to sell crops at artificially suppressed prices.
