Abstract

The effective implementation of supply chain and logistics management brings in significant advantages in terms of competition for the enterprises in recent years. With the effective management of the logistics processes, the value created in supply chain is being increased. The meaning of this value, while making profit for the service offering party, is to receive the lowest price and get the expected service in the customer side. Also, textile-garment sector is the leading sector in our country and, it has the highest employment rate among industries. This situation has increased the importance of competition and production techniques in the industry. Especially textile-garment industry presents itself as an area worth observing in this regard. The purpose of this study is to identify the variables that affect the national competition in the textile-garment industry regarding the supply, production and logistics activities. The study was conducted on the textile-garment enterprises connected to the Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Turkey (TOBB), which is active in the last quarter of 2012. In the study, competitiveness evaluated in the textile-garment industry by determining activities like supply, production and logistics. In the light of the statistical analysis some variables which determine the competition at the national level in the textile-garment industry are reached.
