Abstract: The project mainly deals with detailed study on export oriented & local knit brands & their products, while taking account of various aspects such as – product type, age group, construction of fabric, fabric sourcing, fabric supplier, fabric cost, FOB cost of garments, accessories sourcing & some activities towards sustainability of brands. In this project samples are collected randomly from the merchandising departments of different company & buying houses. Brands are selected in convenient method. We also selected some renowned local brand randomly. Quantitative data & qualitative data are collected through some questionnaires & then they are analyzed. The export oriented brands are selected for the study from North America, South America & Europe region. The result visualizes the picture of detailed study on export oriented & local knit brands & some drawbacks of our local brand has been discovered with some recommendation of appropriate solutions. A detailed survey was also conducted to find out how different aspects of the brands affect consumer behavior.

The cardinal objective of blending is to combine fibers which emphasizes good quality and minimizes poor quality. Jute is a natural fiber popularly known as the golden fiber of Bangladesh. It is one of the cheapest and strongest natural fibers and is considered the fiber for the future. Polyester is a manufactured product which tends to be very resilient, quick drying, resistant to biological damage such as mold and mildew, easy to wash and able to hold forms well. Although polyester is often maligned as a textile, it has many useful applications. The following study is an experimental research on how blending of Polyester with Jute behaves a single yarn manufactured using jute yarn manufacturing machineries. Tossa Jute of B grade and Polyester of 1.4 Denier & 32 mm staple length were chosen for the blending. The blending was performed at the 2nd Draw Frame stage of jute manufacturing system and blending ratio of jute and polyester fibers is 80:20. Count of Jute blended sliver and yarn after each stage was measured and recorded. The present work is concerned with the investigation of physical properties of manufactured jute blended yarns. Tests were conducted on blended yarn to find out Count, Twist per Inch (TPI), Strength, Quality Ratio Moisture Regain, Moisture Content, Hairiness, Percentage of Fibers in the final blended yarn etc.
