This book was released on 2019-12-27 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerous clothing industries face highly dynamic environments, and growth in this environment depends upon both external and internal factors. External factors are represented by aggressive competition and volatile product demand. Internally, the industry must face an increasingly shorter life cycle of the product and the need to innovate both product and organizational development. The competitive advantage of the industry lies in its ability to design a value-creating system based on the management of both external and internal relationships. The successful management of these relationships relies not only on successful customer relationship management but also on effective product supply and demand upkeep. Management and Inter/Intra Organizational Relationships in the Textile and Apparel Industry provides emerging research exploring relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research underlining the complexity of management applications within the textile industry. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as consumer relationships, cultural identity, and organizational culture, this book is ideally designed for researchers, academicians, professionals, and students working in various disciplines including management, industrial organization, organizational behavior, human resource management, decision science, design science, and information and communication. Moreover, the book will provide insights and support executives and managers of the textile and apparel industry concerned with the ethic design, contamination, and the management relationships with workers, customers, suppliers, the community, and organizational development.

This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Trade and Distribution, grade: A-10.0, , language: English, abstract: This study focusses on reviewing apparel manufacturing eco-systems of Ethiopia, identifying missing inputs (weak points) of existing supply chain and assessing their impact on competitiveness of Ethiopian Apparel manufacturing firms. Countries compete with each other to improve the standard of living and quality of life of their citizens, grow economically, attract foreign investments and tourists, maintain political stability and build their own brand image by using competitive advantage of their nations. Apart from favourable Macro environment (GDP, purchasing power, Economic freedom, easy of doing business, and political stability) low Production factors such as rawmaterials, related and supplying industries, electric cost and skilled and semiskilled manpower are the source of competitive advantage both to the countries and firms along the supply chain. The textile and clothing industry have been one of the most dynamic and geographically mobile industries globally. The industry is made up of complex global production networks and due to the possibilities of minimizing the costs of production, many buying companies use suppliers located in developing countries and manufacturers of textile and clothing companies also relocate themselves in developing countries through foreign direct investment (FDI). Over recent years there has been an increasing amount of interest in Africa for investment as a continent with immense resources and potential. Ethiopia in particular has been singled out as a land of growth and investment opportunity. Ethiopia grows some of the world‘s finest cotton and has a rich textile spinning and weaving history, yet its importance on a global scale remains insignificant. Having experienced average annual growth rate of 10.7% GDP growth consistently since 2006 and a stable political framework since 1995, it still remains largely, not yet used or taken advantage of it. Although, favourable business environment is set by the government, there are ―missing inputs (weak points)‖ in existing supply chain which should be addressed. For example, in the case of garment manufacturing, trimming and accessories, packaging, certification bodies, spare part technology and machine maintenance companies and Ecommerce are missed along the supply chain.

Download or read book Supply Chain Risk Management in the Apparel Industry written by Peter Cheng and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apparel is one of the oldest and largest export industries in the world. It is also one of the most global industries because most nations produce for the international textile and apparel market. The changing global landscape drives cost volatility, regulatory risk and change in consumer preference. In today’s retail landscape, media and advocacy groups have focussed attention on social and environmental issues, as well as new regulatory requirements and stricter legislations. Understanding and managing any risk within the supply chain, particularly ethical and responsible sourcing, has become increasingly critical. This book first gives a systematic introduction to the evolution of SCRM through literature review and discusses the importance of SCRM in the apparel industry. Second, it describes the life cycle of the apparel supply chain and defines the different roles of the value chain in the apparel industry. Thirdly, it identifies the risk factors in the Apparel Life Cycle and analyses the risk sources and consequences and finally, extends the importance of selection of the suppliers and develops a supplier selection model and SCRM strategies solution by data analysis and case studies.

Download or read book Modeling Structural Change in the U S Textile Industry written by Shu Yang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews the experience of the textile and apparel sectors over the post-war period. An econometric study of the cost structure of the industry is undertaken to obtain inferences regarding the existence of structural change and the exact nature of any changes that occurred. A variety of approaches to modeling production technologies in both the textile and apparel sectors are considered. Our results confirm the existence of significant structural breaks which altered the nature of production technologies and economic relationships in these sectors. Our results indicate that a significant amount of labor, which became relatively more expensive as the economy developed after the Second World War, was replaced by capital in these sectors. Our results indicate that new technologies made it easier to substitute capital for labor. We also give attention to the important role played by textile and apparel imports over this period. Textile trade has traditionally been heavily regulated, most recently by the Multi-Fiber Arrangement of the GATT. Policy changes allowed greater access to developed country markets. This stimulated production in developing countries and thus enhanced the role of imports from developing countries. We argue that this stimulated the structural changes which led to, among other things, the release of labor from these sectors and the concomitant plant closings. These factors also stimulated capital deepening. Finally, we also consider the issue of substitutability among alternative forms of fibers in the textile sector. Our analysis quantifies demand relationships among natural and synthetic fibers. Our analysis reveals that structural changes often encouraged the use of synthetic fibers.

This book was released on 2016-06-17 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The textile manufacturing industry (NAfICS 313) has played an important role in the history of the United States and continues to be a major industrial employer, not only in the US, but also around the world. Textiles are mainly considered a component part of the supply chain, with end uses ranging from apparel to home textiles to industrial goods to medical textiles. Even though apparel is the largest end use of textiles and has increasingly moved offshore to low-cost labor countries, there remains a growing textile manufacturing industry in the US for capital and technology-intensive products, such as nonwovens and those with military end uses.
