This study investigates the implementation of lean manufacturing in the textile industry, focusing on its potential to enhance efficiency, reduce waste, and improve product quality. Lean manufacturing principles, including Just-In-Time (JIT) production, Kanban systems, value stream mapping, 5S workplace organization, and continuous improvement (Kaizen), have been widely recognized for their effectiveness in various manufacturing sectors. However, their application in the textile industry remains underexplored. Through a systematic literature review of 60 review papers and empirical analysis involving case studies, interviews, and surveys with industry experts, managers, and workers, this research identifies the significant benefits of lean practices in textile manufacturing. The findings reveal substantial efficiency gains, waste reduction, and quality improvements among companies adopting lean principles. Nevertheless, the study also highlights several industry-specific challenges, such as high variability in raw materials, complex production processes, and market pressures from fast fashion. These challenges necessitate tailored approaches and effective change management strategi
