Noakhali has been neglected and backward in terms of industry since time immemorial. Although the district has a tradition of public resources, it goes without saying that there are no public or private initiatives in industrialization. Many residents of this district have set up large scale industries in different parts of the country. But the people of this district are wandering around the country and abroad in search of work. Despite so much reluctance and neglect, some factories have been set up. The following is a brief introduction of some heavy industry establishments under Noakhali Sadar Upazila and some potential fish farming projects in the future:

01. Habib Vegetable Products Ltd.

Messrs. Habib Vegetable Products Ltd. was established in 1986 at Maijdi Bazar under Sadar upazila of Noakhali district in collaboration with Mr. Aziz Ullah and Mr. Afzal Mirza. Initially financed by the bank and with a capital of around Tk 12 crore, including its own funds, the large West German state-of-the-art edible oil refinery and plant manufacturing plant is located on about 5 acres of real estate. The project, which is capable of producing about 54,000 tonnes of oil a year, has been in production since 1986. This large organization currently employs 300 workers and is making a huge contribution to the development of the national economy including solving the unemployment problem of the district. After the death of Chairman Alhaj Habibur Rahman, his successor, Vice Chairman Mr. Sarwar Mirza, Under the supervision of the Board of Directors comprising of Managing Director Mr. Afzal Mirza, the large company was handed over to their elder Mr. Anwar Mirza when it faced financial problems and losses. Although the production response has continued since then, it has not yet reached the desired goal.

02. Al Amin Bread and Scoots Ltd.

Messrs. Al Amin Bread and Biscuits Factory was established in 1986 at Maizdi Bazar under Noakhali Sadar Upazila, the center of Noakhali district. Inspired by Alhaj Mr. Habibur Rahman, the owner of the once traditional Mohammadi Biscuit Factory and the Mostafa Biscuit Factory at Chaumuhani Bazar, located on the west side of the main road of the district town including Maijdi Bazar. Production of the 1st unit of Messrs. Al-Amin Bread and Biscuit Factory started in 1986. Built on state-of-the-art technology on a property of about 2 acres, the factory is currently producing 3 units. Capable of producing approximately 20 tons of various high quality biscuits per day, the factory is making a huge contribution to the financial crisis of thousands of workers and about 10,000 families in the district. A. The demand for biscuits is increasing day by day as the factory-produced biscuits are gaining popularity all over the country. Mr. Sarwar Mirza, Mr. Attar Mirza and Mr. Aziz Ullah were among the other assistants who helped in the completion of the project.

Mr. Md. Anwar Mirza, Chairman of Al-Amin Group, leased 33 acres of land from the government at Binodpur village on the outskirts of Noakhali district town and first set up a plan to set up Messrs. Farhana Textile Mills Ltd. Later, he changed the project plan and set up a common beverage and factory in Uttu Sahane. Uttu project is currently underway. This has provided employment opportunities to thousands of unemployed youths and women in Noakhali district. At the same time, the organization is making a significant contribution to the national economy.

Later many more small scale industries were established in Sadar upazila of Noakhali district.
