We observe that the textile industry is evolving and still impacted by the health crisis of recent years. In this context , fashion brands are striving to find their way back to effectiveness and efficiency , with interactions between stakeholders, suppliers, manufacturers , carriers , and data being crucial
These interactions have been impacted, and to this day they are experiencing a certain obsolescence, particularly on tools as Excel spreadsheets , emails and other channels which can maximize risks and thus tarnish the productivity and efficiency of the brand.
It then becomes essential to turn to the digitalization of supplies, which makes it possible to facilitate the workflow and improve productivity while developing the sustainability of practices.
And what happens to the data in all of this?
Find Caroline and Sicco's answer in the replay of the webinar which deals with supplier relations and data management!
Your data is precious and represents your greatest asset. It must be secure, protected, and above all, controlled. Traceability in the supply chain thus corresponds to monitoring data exchanges and interactions between the various stakeholders in the chain. This concept is becoming paramount and a priority for brands today. Indeed, as we mentioned in the introduction, the global pandemic and new legislation coming into effect are forcing brands to prioritize their strategy in this area.
Therefore, to ensure data traceability in particular, it is crucial to digitize supply chain processes. This digitization places the brand at the heart of its market through increased productivity and efficiency.
