    This report is a brief summary of my 6-week internship at Master Textile Mills. My internship began in the Marketing Department (Garment Division). Where I learned about how new order sampling is done and how to prepare samples from the sampling department. Beginning in the marketing department, I learned about sample manufacturing details.

The system, working style, working conditions, organizational culture, rules and regulations, policies, work processes and employee commitment, employee training programs, employee safety and health assurance, salaries. The Merchant collaborates with the CAD-CAM Department to obtain the garment's pattern. If necessary, the pattern is modified based on the customer's specific requirements and shared back with the CAD-CAM Department for finalization. Subsequently, the pattern is used to cut the garment pieces, which are then passed on to the stitching line for assembly. Throughout the stitching process, garments undergo rigorous quality inspections, including in-line and final inspections, to ensure adherence to the highest standards. Upon completion of the stitching phase, garments proceed to the washing stage. For PFGD (Prepare for Garment Dye) fabrics or non-denim materials, a dyeing process follows. Denim fabrics, on the other hand, undergo washing directly. Once washed and dried, the garments enter the Refinishing and Finishing stages, culminating in the final Audit. The final step involves preparing a Gate Pass and dispatching the garments via DHL services. The initiation of work across all departments at Master Textile Mills Ltd. (MTML) is triggered by the receipt of a purchase order (PO) from the customer in the merchandising department M6. The PO is then forwarded to the PPC department for further processing. Upon confirmation of the PO, the cutting department receives instructions from the induction department and commences production. Other departments collaborate closely with the production units to ensure seamless execution of the manufacturing process.
