Abstract

This article delves into the transformative impact of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology within the textile and apparel industry, emphasizing its pivotal role in enhancing operational efficiencies, supply chain visibility, and inventory management. The advent of RFID technology marks a significant shift towards digitalization and datadriven decision-making in an industry characterized by rapid product cycles, diverse product ranges, and high demand for quality and sustainability. Utilizing a literature review, case studies, and empirical data, the research underscores RFID's potential to address the unique operational complexities of the fashion sector, facilitating improved accuracy, security, and operational agility. Furthermore, the paper explores RFID deployment's environmental and social implications, considering its role in promoting sustainable practices. This article offers valuable insights for academic researchers, industry practitioners, and policymakers aiming to navigate the evolving landscape of fashion technology and its impact on global supply chains by providing a nuanced understanding of RFID technology's advantages, implementation challenges, and broader implications for sustainability and efficiency in the textile and apparel industry.
