Abstract
Milliken embarked on introducing TQM more than 10 years ago and is achieving great results under the banner of continuous improvement. Milliken is one of the world’s largest textile companies. It is family owned and is independent financially. It was created in 1865 in the small town of Portland (USA) by Seth Milliken and was called the Deering Milliken Company. This name was changed in 1976 to Milliken & Company. Today Milliken & Co. has manufacturing and sales locations nearly all over the world.
