Our story · Oitihyer Haat Bhola
Oitihyer Haat Bhola — an island seasoned slowly.
Bhola — the Queen Island — ringed by the Meghna and the Tetulia.
Who we are
One island. One team.
Champions of heritage.
এক দ্বীপ · এক দল · এক ঐতিহ্য
Bhola is an island — held by the Meghna, the Tetulia and the Bay of Bengal. Islands teach one lesson early: you get through it together.
Every pot of tok doi, every hilsa, every hand-woven kula we offer comes from people who stood with us — herders on the chars, fishers at the ghats, sweet-makers in Ghuingarhat, artisans in the villages.

Together again
01The GI treasure
Buffalo Tok Doi
Raw buffalo milk from the char bathans, set in clay the old way — so firm it holds upside-down. GI-certified heritage of Bangladesh.
02The river's silver
Meghna Hilsa
Where the Meghna and Tetulia meet the Bay, the hilsa run rich. Bhola's ghats land some of the finest in the country.
03The sweet hamlet
Ghuingarhat Sweets
Buffalo-milk sweets and rasmalai from the kitchens of Borhanuddin — carried off the island once a year, to the haat.
04Hands of the island
Island Crafts
Handloom gamchha, bamboo kula and baskets, hogla mats of river reed, clay pots, wooden fira and carved boats — the objects of island homes, made by hand.
The legacy
