Background of the Study
Technology has revolutionized supply chain management, enabling businesses to streamline operations, enhance productivity, and improve customer satisfaction. In Nigeria's textile industry, supply chain inefficiencies have historically hindered growth and competitiveness, with challenges including poor inventory management, delayed production cycles, and limited market access (Adebayo & Okeke, 2023).
Emerging technologies such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, warehouse automation, and data analytics offer solutions to these inefficiencies. By integrating these technologies, Nigerian textile firms can optimize their supply chain processes, reduce costs, and compete more effectively in domestic and international markets (Eze & Chukwuma, 2024).
This study examines the role of technology in enhancing supply chain efficiency in Nigerian textile firms, highlighting successes, challenges, and potential areas for improvement.
Statement of the Problem
The Nigerian textile industry faces significant supply chain inefficiencies, including delays, waste, and high costs. These issues are exacerbated by limited adoption of advanced technologies, which are critical for improving supply chain processes. As global competitors embrace technological innovations, Nigerian textile firms risk losing market share unless they adapt (Oluwakemi, 2023).
This study seeks to address the gap in knowledge regarding how technology can enhance supply chain efficiency in Nigerian textile firms, providing actionable insights for industry stakeholders.
