Constructing A New Standard Of Excellence
Shanta started its journey in 1988 in the ready-made garment (RMG) sector and became one of the forerunners in RMG export by establishing leading industries such as Shanta Garments Ltd, Shanta Industries Ltd, Shanta Washworks Ltd, GDS Chemicals Ltd and Shanta Denims Ltd. Earning a solid reputation as an important vendor for some of the most renowned apparel brands of USA and Europe.
Shanta is also a key founding member and majority stakeholder of the STS Group - the promoter of the world-class Evercare Hospitals Dhaka (previously Apollo Hospital) and Chattogram, International School Dhaka (ISD), Glenrich International School, Universal College Bangladesh (UCB) and the Delhi Public Schools, Dhaka. Moreover, Shanta Securities Ltd., Shanta Asset Management Ltd. and Shanta Equity Ltd. were established in 2015 with the aim of setting higher standards in the financial services sector. Shanta has a long track record of construction since 1991, having been involved in various projects of its own and of the STS Group. It has built the iconic Safura Tower- the 16 storied commercial landmark at Banani, the 200,000 sft multi-facility centrally air conditioned International School Dhaka (ISD) at Bashundhara, the 125,000 sft Delhi Public School at Uttara, state-of-the-art RMG factories such as its 150,000 sft Shanta Industries Ltd, the 150,000 sft Shanta Denims Ltd and the 35,000 sft Shanta Washworks Ltd at Dhaka EPZ.
Furthermore, the team was also involved in the construction of Apollo Hospitals Dhaka - the 550,000 sft first multi-disciplinary super-specialty hospital of the country.
Eventually exiting the RMG sector and dissolving its interests to pursue the passion for construction, Shanta Holdings Limited (SHL) was established in 2005 with a mission to change the lifestyle of city dwellers by providing modern, functional and aesthetic living and working spaces that can only be compared to the most successful developers of the globe.

Since then, SHL has emerged as the most reputed and fastest growing real estate developer of the country.

Our Logo
Rationale
The concept for our logo is derived from the shape of human hands, the shape they make when held with the palms facing each other.
Usually, when we hold an object in our palms, it is something we care about, something valuable to us. Like when a blow of air attempts to put off a candle that gives us light, we protect it with our palms. When a tiny bird falls from its nest, we hold it up and protect it in our palms. When a sculptor sculpts a masterpiece, he shapes it using his fingers and palms. Hence, our logo depicts the amount of care and emotion we put into each and every creation.
Moreover, it is a symbol that inspires us on a daily basis to be caring towards our clients and protect their interests by providing an uncompromising level of service and superior products.
