UK's Industry Forum and [TC] are joining together to present a Fast Fashion workshop May 28th at Fashion Business Inc. in the California Market Center, Los Angeles, CA. In a recessionary environment with unpredictable demand, having shorter supply chain pipelines becomes critical. Consumers look for better value and inefficient supply chains quickly crumble under the joint pressure of reducing prices and increasing costs. Being lean and efficient with low waste is therefore a strategic necessity for survival. Fast Fashion companies in Europe have demonstrated that their model delivers higher return on capital employed with higher inventory turns and better same store sales growth figures.
-
Understand in more depth the principles behind the Zara and fast fashion business models and improved efficiency reduces costs.
-
Explore how to achieve a fast supply chain and deliver better products with lower risk, reducing the cash to cash cycle.
-
Learn how to improve the critical path, re-engineer the supply chain, and manage the process more effectively.
- Learn what processes
enable the Fast Fashion cycle from design to point of sale to be
achieved in 4 to 6 weeks and the company culture required to
support the processes.
- Understand how financial performance can be improved through Fast Fashion.
The presentations will include Fast Fashion examples of tools and techniques which have been successfully applied. [TC]2 will show how Fast Fashion meets the sustainability agenda and how advances in digital technology will make processes even faster.
