Sonapahar Project

The Sonapahar Project is located in Mirsharai, Chattogram, a fast-growing industrial area of Bangladesh.
It is mainly known as the site of BSRM Steel Mills Ltd., one of the country’s leading steel producers.
BSRM established its melting and billet plant here in 2016 to expand steel production capacity.
Over time, the area has also seen other business activities, including agriculture and farm-related projects.
Some job posts mention a “Sonapahar Project” that may include livestock and plantation work.
There are also reports of a nearby “Sonapahar Farmhouse Resort,” suggesting hospitality ventures in the same zone.
Local communities have raised concerns over groundwater use and hill cutting linked to industrial expansion.
Environmental monitoring and community dialogue have been encouraged to maintain balance.
The project benefits from Mirsharai’s strategic location, near the Dhaka–Chattogram Highway and the economic zone.
Though its exact corporate identity is not clearly defined, it operates under or alongside BSRM’s industrial network.
Sonapahar represents a mix of industry, agriculture, and development within a growing economic corridor.
Overall, it plays a key role in regional growth, but faces challenges related to sustainability and regulation.
