Sell online from Sunamganj

The haor is Sunamganj's biggest opportunity for online sellers. Properly sun-dried shutki and freshwater fish products have a loyal national market, especially among Sylheti families living in Dhaka and Chattogram. Clean drying, vacuum or double-sealed bags and honest labelling of species and weight make the difference. Aromatic local rice, duck eggs, honey, handmade nakshi kantha and bamboo crafts are other things local makers could list, and musicians and instrument makers can sell recordings or handmade dotara and ektara.

Selling on Midmart is free, and Midmart takes no part in payment or delivery: each seller collects payment in their own way and books their own courier. Remember that monsoon flooding can slow couriers out of the haor upazilas, so set realistic delivery times and stock up on dried goods in the winter season, when the catch is largest.
