| description | Bangladesh's textile sector plays a crucial role in its economy by creating jobs and significantly contributing to export revenue. However, this industry faces challenges, including contaminated water sources and the release of airborne pollutants due to its high-water usage, chemical dyes, and manufacturing processes. Therefore, establishing a sustainable supply chain is essential. This study aims to identify the critical obstacles to establishing a sustainable supply chain. Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) techniques, such as DEMATEL, help reveal the relationships between different components and determine the relative importance of each in the decision-making model. Meanwhile, Fuzzy TOPSIS proves reliable in situations of uncertainty, allowing for effective ranking of the barriers. The findings indicate that the most pressing barriers include resistance to change and the adoption of innovation, financial constraints or high costs, and a lack of support and commitment from top management. This assessment helps pinpoint crucial obstacles that must be addressed to achieve sustainability in the textile sector. By effectively identifying and eliminating these barriers, this study aims to assist those involved in the industry in their pursuit of a more sustainable future. |
