Attracting the customer through proper branding with quick response has established new business strategies, new relationships and new procedures to speed the flow of information and merchandise between retailers and manufacturers of apparel and textiles. The objective of this paper is to briefly review competitive strategies in branding that are relevant to the Bangladeshi apparel industry, focusing specifically on differentiation and branding methods. Applications to both textile and apparel firms are made and a potential structures by which local brands like Cat's Eye, Westecs, Artisti, Kay Kraft, Aarong, Banglar Mela, Dorjibari, Lubnan, Artness, etc,  may develop brands potentiality is introduced. This paper will aid industry in the development of textile and apparel brands, as well as recommendations on brand strategy and creation. A general overview of this paper is given below. </Abstract>
