Description
Summary:碩士 === 銘傳大學 === 國際企業學系碩士在職專班 === 106 === Amid the era of deteriorating global warming situation, the issue of environmental impact is also gaining more and more attention. During the manufacturing processes of textile products, many of them will cause impact to ecological environment. To reduce harms to the environment and enhance the international competitiveness of the textile industry, the introduction of a green supply chain is an issue that needs to pay attention to. The main purpose of this study is to understand the major obstacles when Taiwan’s textile industry is introduced with a green supply chain. It is expected that it would provide opportunities for the textile industry to move towards the green supply chain and serve as a government’s guideline to lead SMEs to enter into the green supply chain in the future. In this study, major textile manufacturers, small and medium-sized traders, brand agents and raw materials suppliers were chosen as the main research subjects. First of all, the initial structural aspect levels were defined based on a literature investigation approach, and then six major aspect levels and 16 subprojects were sorted out through an interview survey to establish a research framework and questionnaire design. Finally, the domestic textile industry was conducted with an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to analyze the relative importance features among various factors based on the recovered information from the survey. The research findings indicate that the “financial aspect” is the biggest obstacle when the textile industry is introduced with a green supply chain; followed by “enterprise aspect” and the “manufacturing process aspect.” These are regarded as the top three most important obstacles. This has disproved the fact that most enterprises are unwilling to be led into the green supply chain, but a lack of funds has discouraged them to do so. However, sustainable logistics management and the introduction of advanced environmental technology and technique skills are the feasible solutions to help Taiwan’s small and medium-sized textile enterprises to engage in green transformation and enhance their market competitiveness in the future.
