Excellence in Diversity Since 1973
Marana Group was formed by professionals whose lives and work have been closely tied to the economic, infrastructural and institutional development of Bangladesh since the country’s early years. The Group draws on a deeper lineage shaped by trade, maritime exchange and civic engagement that long predated modern statehood.
The entrepreneurial culture that emerged around Bangladesh’s ports and trading routes cultivated a tradition of quiet competence, resilience and long-term thinking. Those instincts continue to guide the Group’s approach today. Marana’s founders have worked inside complex national projects, international partnerships and regulated environments, gaining practical knowledge that cannot be replicated through theory alone.
Over time, this experience has been translated into a diversified group operating across energy, shipping and logistics, automation and instrumentation, water, telecommunications, advanced technologies, media and social impact initiatives. Expansion has been deliberate. Each vertical has been built around specialised teams, domain knowledge and institutional memory, rather than opportunistic diversification.
Marana’s operating philosophy rests on a belief that technology, when applied responsibly, can expand opportunity and improve outcomes. This principle underpins the Group’s commitment to Technology for Empowerment, shaping how it invests, partners and delivers across sectors. The Group continues to pursue strategies that strengthen Bangladesh’s position while maintaining an outward-looking, international orientation.
