Economies are moving from a linear model to a circular model to address global issues such as resource extraction, environmental degradation, and waste generation. It is obvious that today's linear economy cannot carry out a sustainable production process, so a transition to a circular economy (CE) is needed, especially in industries that have harmful environmental effects, such as textile and fashion industries. In order to move towards circular economy, the organization must first identify the obstacles and remove them. The key focus of the research is currently identifying and ranking the success indicators and empowering the circular supply chain, while the challenges and obstacles investigated by the existing literature are still largely fragmented. In this research, the obstacles in achieving the circular supply chain are discussed, because the desire of zero waste companies can be achieved through the circular supply chain management (CSCM). Considering the fact that the circular supply chain is a new topic in developing countries like Iran and few researches have been done in this field, it was decided that in this research, the performance of Sante Textile Company of Isfahan in facing and removing obstacles to achieving the chain circular supply in the textile industry. Because circular supply chain management (CSCM) helps this industry to achieve resource efficiency and profitability due to high water and energy consumption, while reducing negative environmental, social and economic effects. To achieve these goals in the studied company, the ability and performance of the company in facing the obstacles and challenges of circular supply chain management (CSCM) implementation should be investigated. For this purpose, based on the review of the research literature and the background of the research, the barriers to the implementation of the circular supply chain were extracted, and according to the opinion of the experts, finally, 18 barriers were approved. Finally, using the best-worst (BWM) method, these barriers were determined by weight and importance. The results showed that financial obstacles with a weight of 0.2072 won the first place. Issues related to raw materials with a weight of 0.1938 have won the second place and design issues with a weight of 0.1621 have won the third place. Also, among the following obstacles, quality problems with a weight of 0.0834 have won the first place. Lack of capital with a weight of 0.0712 has won the second place and the challenge in product design with a weight of 0.0637 has won the third place. Finally, based on a performance eva‎luation questionnaire, the studied company was examined in relation to the removal of circular economy obstacles, and the results showed that the studied company was 33% active in the field of removing obstacles.
