Motivated by United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the importance of sustainability, this study examines how the textile and apparel (TA) supply chains can comply with the SDGs. By examining the literature as well as industrial practices, we show that the current sustainable operations in TA industry are far away from realizing the goals of economic growth going hand-in-hand with the social and environmental sustainability. For instance, among the SDGs, the goals of "", "", and "" receive a considerable amount of attention, while goals of "", "", "" and "" have the least attention. Balanced sustainable development actions from the stakeholders' perspective are proposed. Managerial implications and future studies are discussed.
受联合国可持续发展目标（SDGs）以及可持续性重要性的推动，本研究探讨了纺织服装（TA）供应链如何能够符合可持续发展目标。通过审视相关文献以及行业实践，我们发现当前TA行业的可持续运营与实现经济增长与社会和环境可持续性齐头并进的目标相去甚远。例如，在可持续发展目标中，“”“”和“”等目标受到了相当多的关注，而“”“”“”和“”等目标受到的关注最少。我们从利益相关者的角度提出了平衡的可持续发展行动建议。同时还讨论了管理启示和未来研究方向。
