The Officers' Club hosts Eid Ananda Mela twice a year to promote small and medium entrepreneurs.

Around 30 enterprises from across the country participated in this year's fair. 

Ferdousi Khan said the Officers' Club hosts such fairs to support entrepreneurs who do not have their own shops. "We observed that Nagad's digital payment technology has made transactions simple for them."
