Retailers are being advised to review their supply chains in a bid to accelerate their speed to market.
Fashion Logistics
assesses the growth and changes in the industry as well as the drivers of change in the market. Supply chain networks and operations play an integral role in distributing product across the retail industry and significant changes within those networks have altered the way in which they function. Manufacturers therefore need to rethink their supply chains to make them resilient to shock, agile enough to respond quickly to sudden change, flexible enough to customize products and efficient enough to protect margins.
Fashion Logistics
assesses these forces and changes and how manufacturers should adapt their working practices accordingly.

This second edition of
Fashion Logistics
includes revised CSR and reshoring sections, updated case studies and new content on how manufacturers can adapt their working practices and the further demise of the department store sector.
