Textile industry

Textiles as a forerunner in the industrialization of many current developed countries to the post-industrial stage has fundamental role. Due to the occurrence of many problems in the Iranian textile industry, this industry has faced many hardships. The objective of this article is to develop an evaluation model for sustainable technology in the textile industry. The present research method is applied, in terms of (quantitative-qualitative) mix method. The qualitative sector is consists of the statistical population of elite in the textile industry, which semi-structured interviews were carried out with 10 experts in the textile industry. Their ideas were refined in two stages using the Fuzzy Delphi method and according to the library studies and expert ideas, the evaluating components of technology were identified and a researcher-made questionnaire was developed in the Likert spectrum. Its validity was measured using confirmatory factor analysis and reliability with combined method. The quantitative sector is consist of the statistical population includes all engineers, managers and university professors of the textile industry, of which 200 people were randomly selected as the sample size. Based on the results of the qualitative and quantitative sectors, the technology evaluating model has been drawn including 10 dimensions of economic, cultural, environmental, marketing, legal, organizational, political, technical, managerial and marketing. Obstacles and influential factors in evaluating technology are stated here with their consequences.

The purpose of this study is to design a model to explain the indicators of brand value creation in the Iranian textile industry, to identify the dimensions, components and the indicators of brand value, measuring the dimensions, components and indicators of brand value. The research method in this study is descriptive-exploratory using ground data theory (grounded theory). The study population is the Iranian textile industry. The final research model includes the three main dimensions of customer, organization and government. The results obtained from the correlation of factors also showed that value from the customer's point of view, value from the organization's point of view and value from the government's point of view have the most role and effect in brand value development, respectively. Factors showed issues related to import and export, cost management, insurance and tax issues, administrative bureaucracy, human resources, technology, customer emotional factors and performance expectations factors are considered to be of higher rank and importance for brand value creation from the evaluators' point of view, respectively.

The economic conditions prevailing in the country, sanctions, rapid changes and transformations of the markets, and the complexity and disorder of the market environment, have made it necessary to pay attention to the anti-fragility approach in the industries. One of the most interesting industries is the textile industry. Hence, due to the strategic nature and having a large domestic consumption market, the textile industry must be anti-fragile in order to quickly adapt to new conditions and maintain and improve its competitive value in a safe and stable condition. This research was conducted with a review of the literature in order to achieve the anti-fragility of textile industries throughout the supply chain. We identified the anti-fragility components and weighed them using the best-worst method. Then, we reviewed the literature on the textile industry and interview the experts in this industry, to identify and evaluate the fragility factors. By using the CoCoSo method the most important factors that disrupt anti-fragility were ranked. Finally, the results of the research showed that the components: unexpectedness, Adequate supervisors, and Attraction are the most important components. Also, the results obtained from the CoCoSo method showed that the of ''Lack of investment in the (clothing) industry", "Saturation of the market with counterfeit brands due to the structural weakness of the distribution and smuggling network", and "Undeveloped distribution network" are the most important in the supply chain of the textile industry.
