                            ------------------------

PART I

ITEM 1.    BUSINESS


(A) GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS.

        Springs Industries, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the
State of South Carolina, began its operations in 1888.  Springs' principal
executive offices are located at 205 North White Street, Fort Mill, South
Carolina  29715 (telephone number:  803/547-1500).  The Company's operations
are conducted by various divisions and legal subsidiaries, each of which
operates within either the home furnishings or specialty fabrics industry
segment.

        The term "Springs" or "the Company" as used herein means Springs
Industries, Inc., and its subsidiaries unless clearly indicated otherwise.


(B) FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT INDUSTRY SEGMENTS.

        Financial information for the home furnishings and specialty fabrics
segments is incorporated by reference from the Springs Industries, Inc. 1993
Annual Report to Shareholders ("Annual Report") under the caption "Industry
Segment Information," page 12.


(C) NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.

        HOME FURNISHINGS SEGMENT -- The home furnishings segment manufactures,
purchases for resale, and markets finished products, including sheets,
pillowcases,


 
   5
bedspreads, comforters, soft window coverings, shower curtains, bath rugs and
other bath products and juvenile novelties.  These products are sold primarily
under the trademarks Springmaid(R), Wamsutta(R), Supercale(R), Andre Richard(R),
Pacific(R), Custom Designs(TM), Performance(TM), Wabasso(R) and Texmade(R) and 
under private labels.  The segment also manufactures, purchases for resale, and
markets decorative window products, including vertical and horizontal blinds,
window shades, and window covering hardware.  These products are sold primarily
under the trademarks Graber(R), Bali(R), Fashion Pleat(R), and CrystalPleat(R) 
and also under private labels.  During 1992 the Company acquired the marketing 
and distribution operations of C. S. Brooks Canada, Inc. and the Griffiths-Kerr
division of Finlayson Enterprises, Ltd., both located in Canada, in a
continuing effort to better serve Canadian home furnishings customers and to
expand the Company's presence in the Canadian market.

    SPECIALTY FABRICS SEGMENT -- The specialty fabrics segment manufactures,
purchases for resale, and markets a broad range of finished fabrics for
apparel, upholstery, industrial and specialty end uses.   Apparel and
upholstery fabrics are sold principally to apparel manufacturers, to decorative
home furnishings manufacturers and to the home sewing market primarily under
the trademarks Springmaid(R), Wamsutta(R), and Ultrasuede(R) and under private
labels.  Industrial fabrics, which include  (i) fiber glass industrial fabrics
principally for use in printed electronic circuit boards, advanced composites
and reinforced plastics applications, and as a substrate for coating and
laminating processes, and (ii) industrial fabrics for use in the printing and
electrical industries, are sold under the Clark-Schwebel(TM) trademark.  Other
specialty fabrics, which  include (i) fabrics for use in antiballistic vests
and helmets, sporting goods and various other end uses, and (ii) protective and
fire retardant fabrics for use in industrial and military apparel and for
mattress coverings, draperies and upholstery, are sold under the trademarks
Firegard(R), Synergy(R), and Ultima(TM).
        On March 25, 1993, Springs' subsidiary, Clark-Schwebel, Inc.,
contributed its European fiber glass subsidiaries and $8.8 million in cash to
CS-Interglas A.G., of Ulm, Germany, in consideration of a minority interest in
CS-Interglas A.G. and a convertible debenture.

    RESTRUCTURING -- In 1990, the Company announced a restructuring plan for
certain parts of its operations to consolidate manufacturing operations,
convert certain finished fabric facilities to home furnishings production, and
offer early retirement to qualifying employees.  For further details of this
restructuring plan, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which
can be found on Page 19 of the Annual Report.

    RAW MATERIALS -- Raw materials used by the Company include cotton,
polyester, and other natural and manmade fibers, fiber glass and aramid yarns,
fabrics formed from natural and manmade yarns, and dyes and chemicals.  Such
raw materials are readily available; and, with the exception of certain aramid
fibers and yarns (which are used by the specialty fabrics segment in some of
its products), the Company is not dependent on any one supplier as a source for
raw materials.  Any shortage in the


   6
cotton supply by reason of weather, disease or other factors, or significant
increases in the price of cotton or polyester, however, could adversely affect
the Company's operations.

    TRADEMARKS -- The Company considers its trademarks to be of material
importance to its business.  Protection for these marks is obtained, in part,
through United States and foreign trademark registrations.
        The home furnishings segment uses certain licensed designs and
trademarks which may be considered to be of material importance to this
segment.  These include a license agreement with Bill Blass, Ltd. and multiple
license agreements with The Walt Disney Company.

    WORKING CAPITAL -- The Company's working capital requirements are funded by
its operating cash flow, commercial paper borrowings and short-term bank
borrowings.  Trade receivables are, in the main, collectible in 60 days or
less.

    CUSTOMERS -- In 1993, sales to Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. equaled 11% of
Springs' total sales; no other single customer accounted for ten percent or
more of Springs' total sales.

    BACKLOG ORDERS -- The unfilled order position at January 1, 1994, amounted
to approximately $209 million.  The unfilled order position at January 2, 1993,
was approximately $232 million.  The Company's unfilled order position has
decreased in the past two years due primarily to (i) a planned shift in sales
to home furnishings from apparel fabrics (where home furnishings have
historically had shorter lead times for orders than apparel fabrics), and (ii)
an emphasis by the Company, as well as its competitors, to shorten the time
period necessary to fill orders for goods.

    COMPETITIVE CONDITIONS -- The markets in which the principal products of
the Company are sold are highly competitive as to price, quality, customer
service and product design.

    ENVIRONMENTAL EXPENDITURES -- The Company spent approximately $5.2 million
on environmental and related safety and health projects in 1993 and expects to
spend approximately $5.1 million in 1994.

    ASSOCIATES -- Approximately 20,500 associates were employed by Springs and
its subsidiaries at the end of 1993.





   7
(D) FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC OPERATIONS AND EXPORT
SALES.


International sales of home furnishings and specialty fabric products are made
through Springs' divisions and its subsidiaries.  International sales accounted
for approximately 7.3 percent of total sales in 1993.



ITEM 2.     PROPERTIES

    The Company owns its Executive Office Building and its Research and
Development Center in Fort Mill, South Carolina, and the twenty-one story
Springs Building at 104 West 40th Street, New York, New York.  The Springs
Building contains sales headquarters for two of the Company's divisions and
other staff support offices.  A majority of the Springs Building is leased to
other businesses.

    The Springmaid Home Fashions Division, Performance Division and Wamsutta
Home Products Division lease offices in New York, New York at 787 7th Avenue
and 1285 Avenue of the Americas.  Other divisions lease additional space in
other locations for administration and sales offices and distribution centers.

    The Company also owns a customer service center located near Lancaster,
South Carolina.  This facility houses customer service operations, computer and
data processing operations and accounting offices.

    Springs has sixteen plants used in the manufacture of grey goods, six
dyeing, printing and finishing plants, nine fabricating plants, four plants
used in the manufacture of decorative window products and four fiber glass
fabric manufacturing plants.  Of these plants, twenty-four are in South
Carolina, four in North Carolina, three in Georgia, two each in Alabama and
California, and one each in Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Wisconsin and Nevada.

    The home furnishings segment uses twenty-five of these plants and the
specialty fabrics segment uses eight.  In addition, the home furnishings and
specialty fabrics segments share six plants.  Five of these plants are leased
either through industrial revenue bond financing or through other leases.  In
addition, the Pennsylvania plant is subject to a mortgage.  All other plants
are owned by Spring and are unencumbered.

All plants are well maintained and in good operating condition.

ITEM 3.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Information required by this Item is contained in Notes to Consolidated

Report and incorporated herein by reference.



ITEM 4.     SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

None reportable.





PART II

ITEM 5.     MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED
            STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

    Class A Common Stock of Springs is traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
As of March 23, 1994, there were approximately 3,133 holders of record of
Class A Common Stock, and approximately 85 holders of Class B Common Stock.
No established trading market exists for Class B Common Stock.  However, Class
B Common Stock may, at the election of the holder, be exchanged at any time for
Class A Common Stock.
    Information required by this Item on the sales prices and dividends of the
Common Stock of Springs is incorporated by reference from page 25 of the Annual
Report under the caption "Quarterly Financial Data (Unaudited), Dividends and
Price Range of Common Stock."


ITEM 6.     SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

    Information required by this Item is incorporated by reference from pages
26 and 27 of the Annual Report under the caption "Selected Financial Data."


ITEM 7.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
            CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

    Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations required by this Item is incorporated by reference from pages 13 and
14 of



   9
the Annual Report under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Operations and Financial Condition."
    In addition, in view of events that have occurred following the issuance of
the Annual Report, the Company announced on March 22, 1994, a plan to reduce
annual operating costs by at least $15 million, coupled with a general price
increase for its bedding products effective at midyear.  The cost reduction
plan includes acceleration of expense-cutting programs already in progress;
deferral of certain capital projects with associated expense; reduction of
salaried jobs through consolidations, anticipated attrition and a hold on new
hiring; and efficiencies in administrative areas as a result of systems
improvements.
    The cost-cutting plan was stepped up in response to the Company's lower
than expected earnings during the first two months of 1994.  Home furnishings,
the larger of Springs' two business segments, experienced pressure on its sales
and margins.  As a result, the Company presently expects to report first
quarter earnings in the range of $.30 - $.35 per share compared with last
year's $.51 per share (exclusive of a one-time accounting charge of $4.07 due
to the Company's adoption of Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No.
106 and No. 109).
    The general price increase for the Company's bedding products was partly in
response to the expected future impact of markedly higher cotton prices.



ITEM 8.     FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

    Financial statements, including the report of independent certified public
accountants, and supplementary data required by this Item are incorporated by
reference from the Annual Report.  See Item 14 for a list of financial

Supplementary data is incorporated by reference from page 25 of the Annual
Report under the caption "Quarterly Financial Data (Unaudited), Dividends and
Price Range of Common Stock."

    None.
