Environmental friendliness is a crucial factor for many customers. Currently, the garments sector is paying close attention to the issue of green manufacturing to go a long way and compete with other rivals because customers in key importing nations are now setting very high-quality green production standards on practically all items. Importers may lessen their impact on the environment while simultaneously improving the aesthetics of their products and using it as a competitive advantage in the market by collaborating with green garment factories. Businesses in the garment industry should rely on more than just a few eco-friendly activities that can help with an attention-grabbing marketing campaign to convey a genuine commitment to sustainability. Also, they must keep advancing the sector by utilizing technology, investing in more environmentally friendly procedures, assisting employees along the supply chain, and contributing to creating a circular fashion economy. There were 144 green buildings in the nation as of 2022. Forty-four of them are platinum-rated, while 93 are gold-rated. Up to 500 garment manufacturers are also in line for the USGBC to certify them as LEED facilities (USGBC).
