The Shahjalal Fertilizer Company Limited in Sylhet has faced persistent production disruptions due to mechanical failures, reporting ten interruptions in the first ten months of the 2023-24 fiscal year. Following a seven-month gas supply suspension, operations resumed briefly but were halted again due to mechanical issues, reflecting ongoing challenges since the factory's establishment in 2010. Despite its capacity to produce substantial amounts of urea and ammonia, the factory has struggled to meet production targets and remains unprofitable.
