The Workshop
Industry Forum’s new Fast Fashion workshop will provide you with valuable insights into how to achieve speed from concept to delivery to the consumer. 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. Learn what processes enable the Fast Fashion cycle from design to point of sale to be achieved in 4-6 weeks and the company culture required to support the processes. Using case studies and team activities the workshop will show how retailers and manufacturers can follow Zara and other fast fashion brands and improve speed to market, increase responsiveness, and overall supply chain performance. Learn some key steps and changes in philosophy which can make an impact on your business, quickly. This workshop is a must in understanding the management processes and behaviour required to deliver speed and low cost.
This workshop is part of the on-going series of workshops designed to assist companies make the step change in performance required to satisfy the demands of the current consumer. At the workshop, industry professionals network and discuss today’s issues.
