3 Research Methodology
The third chapter of the bachelor's thesis gives a detailed description of the research
methodology chosen to achieve a system that can develop the industry and export
it as a brand. The following chapters discuss the research structure and design
chosen, the data collection process and the methods used for processing, as well
as the sequence of processes.
3.1 Research Approach
The qualitative research method was chosen as the most suitable approach for
studying the strategy of textile business development in Uzbekistan and the
branding approach for sustainable growth. The main reason for this is that in this
method it is possible to get a clear answer to the questions that arise on the topic.
Apart from that, through quantitative research methods, we get short answers to our
questions, and open questions such as "how" and "why" cannot be answered.
However, interviews used in qualitative research can be used to investigate
individual participants' viewpoints, experiences, beliefs, and motivations (Gill and
Paul, 2008, p.291-295). Qualitative research can assist to obtain a greater
understanding of these structures of reality (Woodman, 2014, p.468). When
conducting qualitative research interviews, all material is based on the interviewer's
knowledge and experience, and answers that are more realistic are presented.
Furthermore, unlike quantitative methodologies, the qualitative approach does not
disregard intent, intention, or comprehension of conduct.
3.2 Sampling
In the qualitative methodology, the participants for the process are not pre-selected,
and the person who encounters them can be selected as a participant, because the
number is important to them, that is, the number of results obtained from the
