Since 2017, the market environment in Cox’s Bazar has
evolved substantially, with significant economic
interaction between enterprises and individuals inside and
outside the Rohingya refugee camps. In November 2021, WFP
and UNHCR conducted the first market assessment of Bhasan
Char which showed that most commodity prices are higher
than other markets due to the transportation cost from the
mainland.
These market assessments diagnose the market situation and functionality based on the most up-to-date information, as humanitarian actors consider enhancing market-based approaches.
