The current direction of sustainable development of industries and regions is clustering, which consists of the creation of innovative and industrial clusters. The main trends in the development of textile clusters in foreign countries have been identified. A typology has been developed and characteristics of various types of clusters have been given according to the level of development of cluster relations: potential, emerging, acting. The criteria for the typology of clusters according to the level of development of cluster relations have been substantiated: the coefficient of specialization, the coefficient of localization, the presence of initiative groups, a registered non-profit organization, joint projects with cluster members. A diagram of a textile cluster in the Vitebsk region has been constructed based on the developed methodology for identifying and structuring clusters. The analysis of the quality of network cooperation in clusters based on the developed typologization criteria allowed concluding that the textile cluster in the Vitebsk region has potential. In order to create an operating cluster, methods have been developed based on the use of ICT and the possibility of digitalization of communications and cooperation of stakeholders in the cluster.
