Purpose –– This study examines the vital role manufacturing industries can play in the realization of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) by adopting sustainability that encompasses economic viability, environmental protection, and social equity. Among such industries is the clothing and textile industry, which supplies one of the basic human needs. The textile industry has a strong potential to increase Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and promote foreign direct investment (FDI). Methods –– The study employed a review approach for its methodology. Secondary data from textile firms, books, and journals were used as sources of information. Findings –– The study revealed that there was a poor track record for social and environmental concerns in textile production among developing countries. The cost of acquiring technology and the threat to indigenous firms were inhibiting factors. The use of obsolete technologies, lack of sustainability principles and policies, and little effort in technology transfer were other factors. Conclusion/Recommendation –– The study recommends that developing countries should adopt a sustainability policy in textile manufacturing by employing technology transfer from developed countries through exchanges and collaborations.

“…There are various practical and theoretical studies concerned with the development of the different models of production planning in specific textile industry conditions, aimed at optimizing production processes and overcoming the basic challenges facing the textile industry. Rabbani et al (2016) (7) developed a mathematical model for selecting technology for production and capacity planning in the textile industry, and the proposed model represents a mixed integer programming problem; the authors consider production planning in this industry as a make-to-order (MTO) system. Radulescu and Radulescu (2007) (8) developed a multi-objective model for production planning in the textile industry, which focuses on finding a compromise between the opposed objectives: return, financial risk and environmental risk.…”

One of the important factors of the economic optimization of production processes is the proper dimensioning of the batch in which production is carried out. This request becomes particularly pronounced in the conditions of the textile industry, where the economic rationalization of production is of crucial importance for a market success. In the paper, we presented the model of the optimization of the batch size based on an analysis of the structure of the expenses, inclusive of a request for their minimization. The suggested model enables the determination of the batch size which has the lowest costs and also the extent to which it is allowed to deviate from the calculated optimum, but still remain within economic rationality. The aim of the theoretical and practical aspects of the paper is to point out the contribution of the suggested approach towards the economicrationalization of production processes in the textile industry.
