Analysis of the Handwoven Carpet Industry at the Industry Level

Porters Five Forces model has been used to analyze the industry level of the handwoven carpet industry
in the province. Porter believes that every business is influenced by five forces that determine its
competitiveness or exclusion from the competitive arena. Porter's Five Forces model provides a
comprehensive framework for analyzing the situation of a specific industry.

Analysis at the Business Level

The purpose of business-level analysis is to familiarize oneself with the actual status of active businesses
in the handwoven carpet and Carpet panel industry in Tabriz and identify common issues and
opportunities. For this purpose, businesses are evaluated throughout a systematic process consisting of
inputs, processes, and outputs. In the input analysis, the resources of each business, including raw
materials, human resources, tools and equipment, fixed capital, etc., are assessed. In the process section,
the production process is evaluated, and in the output section, distribution channels, marketing, and sales
are assessed to conduct a diagnosis at the business level and identify commonalities among businesses.
Financial and environmental evaluations, as well as services, are also necessary to examine the potential
for creating added value.

Value Chain Analysis

The limitation of available resources for human beings and the intensification of global competition for
capturing a larger market share by companies emphasize the need for an effective competitive strategy for
every company. The proliferation of businesses and innovative production methods has increased the use
of resources more rapidly and intensified competition among companies to acquire more resources. On
the other hand, companies are seeking ways to create a competitive advantage by reducing production
costs and achieving higher profits (added value) in their production process.
