The sampling design used in this study is non-probability and data were collected from 204 respondents in three regions; namely, Dar es salaam, Arusha and Mwanza. The estimated results from Factor Analysis, Principal Component Analysis and Structural Equation Modeling support strongly the relevancy of the Porter’s Diamond model in enhancing firm competitive advantage in the textiles and apparel industry in Tanzania. The two most important factors on competitive advantage of the textiles and apparel industry are demand conditions and; related and supporting industries.","author":[{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Person","name":"Khatibu

Data were collected from 204 respondents through cross-section survey design and non-probability sampling method from three regions; namely, Dar es salaam, Mwanza and Arusha. The Maximum Likelihood technique was used to estimate the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) in order to compute the fit indices of both measurement and structural models. In doing so, Factor Analysis was used in the preliminary step before estimating SEM in order to filter out key variables that need to be embedded in gauging competitiveness of the textiles and apparel industry. Thereafter, the principle component analysis (PCA) was used to extract the relevant constructs in the SEM. The estimated results show that value chain management, core competencies, competition, availability of alternative products and barriers to entry are statistically significant constructs in explaining the competitiveness of firms operating in the textile and apparel industry in Tanzania.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"The Determinants of Firm's Competitiveness in the Textile and Apparel Industry in Tanzania","attachmentId":47150445,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/26885664/The_Determinants_of_Firms_Competitiveness_in_the_Textile_and_Apparel_Industry_in_Tanzania","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/26885664/The_Determinants_of_Firms_Competitiveness_in_the_Textile_and_Apparel_Industry_in_Tanzania"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="1" data-entity-id="111539209" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/111539209/Competitive_Advantage_Challenges_Affecting_the_Apparel_Manufacturing_Industry_of_South_Africa_AMISA_Application_of_Porters_Factor_Conditions">Competitive Advantage Challenges Affecting the Apparel Manufacturing Industry of South Africa (AMISA): Application of Porter's Factor Conditions</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="148521943" href="https://independent.academia.edu/SiphoMbatha">Sipho Mbatha</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research), 2015</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Competitive Advantage Challenges Affecting the Apparel Manufacturing Industry of South Africa (AMISA): Application of Porter's Factor Conditions","attachmentId":109049471,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/111539209/Competitive_Advantage_Challenges_Affecting_the_Apparel_Manufacturing_Industry_of_South_Africa_AMISA_Application_of_Porters_Factor_Conditions","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/111539209/Competitive_Advantage_Challenges_Affecting_the_Apparel_Manufacturing_Industry_of_South_Africa_AMISA_Application_of_Porters_Factor_Conditions"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="2" data-entity-id="87605322" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/87605322/Facing_the_Future_Challenges_of_the_Sri_Lankan_Apparel_Industry_An_Approach_based_on_Porters_Diamond_Model_for_the_Competitive_Advantage_of_Nations">Facing the Future Challenges of the Sri Lankan Apparel Industry: An Approach based on Porter's Diamond Model for the Competitive Advantage of Nations</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="2695530" href="https://ousl.academia.edu/SamuelAriadurai">Samuel Anbahan Anbahan</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">Journal Paper, 2015</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">Gaining competitiveness in the quota free trade has become a driving force for the apparel companies to adopt changes in technology and organizations to enhance productivity. While global expansion of the apparel industry historically has been driven by trade policy, by 2005, the Agreement on Textiles and Clothing (ATC) by the World Trade Organization had phased out many of the quotas that had previously regulated the world apparel industry. This caused a tremendous change in the global geography of apparel manufacturing and trade, and a restructuring of company strategies seeking to realign their manufacturing and sourcing networks to accommodate new economic and political realities. This change has brought other key factors for country competitiveness to the forefront, including labour costs, productivity, and competencies. Countries where the cost of labour is low are emerging as leaders in the lower-value assembly segments of the value chain, while countries with higher labour cost are being forced to upgrade into higher-value segments, such as branding and design that rely on high-quality human capital to maintain their competitiveness. As a result, skills of the work force in the apparel industry will become increasingly important element for developing economies to maintain and upgrade their positions in the global apparel value chain. The purpose of this study is to investigate the history of Sri Lankan apparel industry and challenges it faced in different eras and based on the experience gained propose recommendations to face the futuristic challenges of the world apparel trade based on the diamond model for competitive advantage of nations as proposed by Michael Porter.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button

This paper uses Porter's diamond model of national competitiveness to analyze the reasons that helped the sector achieve this position. The results indicate that while low cost human resources have significantly aided the competitiveness of the sector under factor conditions, the other three diamond-shaped elements (national demand conditions, related and supporting industries, firm structure, and management) were either inactive or not very so. The study advances the idea that countries can become globally competitive in a sector even if the national diamond is not sufficiently impregnable.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Analysis of the Competitiveness of Bangladesh RMG Sector Using Porter's Diamond Model","attachmentId":92635591,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/88711915/Analysis_of_the_Competitiveness_of_Bangladesh_RMG_Sector_Using_Porters_Diamond_Model","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/88711915/Analysis_of_the_Competitiveness_of_Bangladesh_RMG_Sector_Using_Porters_Diamond_Model"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="6" data-entity-id="51025292" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/51025292/DETERMINANTS_OF_ETHIOPIA_S_EXPORT_COMPETITIVENESS_A_Case_Study_of_Textile_and_Clothing_Industry">DETERMINANTS OF ETHIOPIA‟S EXPORT COMPETITIVENESS: A Case Study of Textile and Clothing Industry</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="104868448" href="https://independent.academia.edu/EEjigayehu">Endegena Ejigayehu</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">MBA Thesis, Jimma University, Ethiopia, 2021</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">ABSTRACT The share of Ethiopia’s exports in the world market is insignificant, only 0.01 percent. But, despite the complex internal and external challenges, the government of Ethiopian has given prime attention to the export sector, especially to textile and clothing industry due to its growth potential and resource availability. The Ethiopian textile and clothing industry, however, has not grown and developed compared to its history and the comparative advantages that the country have. Why the sector remains infant is a million dollar question that could possibly be addressed through an intensive scientific research. Especially, determinants of export competitiveness are complex and dynamic which requires close monitoring and a sustainable research based strategic fix. The underlying objective of this study is, thus, to empirically examine the determinants of Ethiopia’s textile and clothing industry competitiveness using Porter’s diamond model. Secondary time series data from relevant offices was collected, organized and processed to substantiate exploratory thoughts. OLS regression technique was employed to process the organized data and hence built a substantive conclusion. The results of the regression analysis using Porter’s diamond model suggested that the Ethiopian textile and clothing industry has a relatively better competitive advantage in the basic factor conditions and less competitive advantage in the advanced factor conditions. The demand factor analysis shows positive influences of both domestic and international demand factors on the export competiveness of the textile and clothing industry. With respect to related and supporting industries factor components, value chain management was found weak, inefficient and disorganized and hence little contribution to competiveness. Related to firm strategy, structure and rivalry, the study found no profound export strategy leading to outsmart international competition, no unique business model other than the traditional format and no clear cut mechanism to entertain rivalry in the domestic business. However, the Ethiopian government effort in promoting and supporting the export sector is well recognized. Though determinants of export competitiveness are immense and are interlinked, exhaustive look at of the determining factors and then designing a mix of prudent strategies to capitalize their influences on export competitiveness is the way forward for the renaissance of the Ethiopian textile and clothing industry. This calls for further research in the areas of examining Ethiopia’s export competitiveness potentials, documenting international competitors experience and strategy and analyzing and visioning the future to come using different methodological approaches and data inputs.

The study focuses on Ethiopian shoe industry competitiveness and its export market performance. The main purpose is to find the factors that are impediments for competitiveness of shoe industry at firm level and to find out the peculiar problems of shoe manufacturing in the export activities. Concepts of competitiveness and measures have been discussed. The Porter diamond model has been chosen to analyze firm level competitiveness. The result depicts the very low status of competitiveness of the Ethiopian shoe industry. At the firm level, all the determinants of competitiveness (Factor conditions, related and support industries, firm structure, strategy and rivalry, Demand conditions) are found to be insignificant. Among the factors, related and supporting industries and factor conditions mainly limit the firms from utilizing their cost advantage to...</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Competitiveness of Ethiopian Shoe Industry: Response to Export Market","attachmentId":83308079,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/75606216/Competitiveness_of_Ethiopian_Shoe_Industry_Response_to_Export_Market","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/75606216/Competitiveness_of_Ethiopian_Shoe_Industry_Response_to_Export_Market"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="8" data-entity-id="76783232" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/76783232/Competitiveness_of_clothing_industry_based_on_Porters_diamond_model_SAFTA_countries">Competitiveness of clothing industry based on Porter's diamond model: SAFTA countries</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="29116899" href="https://independent.academia.edu/RodriguesGwendolyn">Gwendolyn Rodrigues</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">2015</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">SAFTA countries traditionally excel in clothing exports.
