Abstract: Introduction: Sterile surgical textiles are critical supplies for hospital biosafety and the continuity of surgical procedures. In the Colombian Caribbean, their supply depends largely on suppliers located in other regions, which increases logistics costs and delivery times. Objective: To design and validate a business model for the local production of sterile surgical textiles in the department of Atlántico. Methodology: A mixed exploratory-descriptive and cross-sectional approach was used. The literature review followed the PRISMA 2020 methodology using Scopus, WOS, and institutional reports (2015–2025). Sixty documents were analyzed, and surveys were administered to 15 experts in the health sector, supplemented by descriptive analysis and thematic coding. The model was structured using Canvas, TAM-SAM-SOM, Design Thinking, and Lean Startup. Results: Eighty percent of the experts considered the presence of regional suppliers to be viable. The model projected a reduction in logistics costs of between 15% and 20%, an IRR of 35%, and an ROI of 33.5% by the third year. Discussion: The findings suggest that local production strengthens availability, reduces logistical vulnerabilities, and improves the resilience of the hospital supply chain. Conclusions: Local production is a viable alternative for strengthening hospital supply and regional operational sustainability.
