Circular Business Models and Resource Efficiency in the Textile and Apparel Industry

The textile and apparel (T&A) industry is a significant employer and export sector across the Eastern Partnership (EaP) countries, with unique potential to drive inclusive, green economic development. However, entrenched systemic constraints including outdated production practices, lack of market linkages, weak regulatory frameworks, and limited access to green practices and services – have hindered the sector’s competitiveness and environmental performance.
RECONOMY supports the transformation of the T&A system by facilitating the adoption of circular business models (CBMs) and resource efficiency (RE), building green skills, improving access to tailored business consulting services, enhancing export linkages, and strengthening policy advocacy through industry associations. These interventions aim to unlock new income streams, green jobs, and sustainablen growth in local and international markets.
