The Kohan Textile Journal Editorial Team reports on developments across the global textile and apparel value chain, with a particular focus on the Middle East, Africa and Türkiye. Our coverage includes textile manufacturing, machinery, fibres and yarns, home textiles, sustainability, trade, investment and international exhibitions.

Articles published under this byline are prepared by members of our editorial team using official company announcements, exhibition materials, interviews, industry reports and other verifiable sources. Before publication, each article is reviewed for accuracy, clarity and relevance.

When a story is based on original reporting, analysis or a contribution by a named expert, the individual author is credited separately. We update or correct published content when reliable new information becomes available.
