Creating a frictionless fashion industry supply chain

October 30, 2009 7:12 AM

Traditional fashion industry supply chain is notoriously complex and volatile. Need less to say it is mired with inefficiencies resulting in excessive cost and obsolescence. Some of the main reason for this inefficiency are

  • High demand volatility,
  • Short product life-cycle,
  • Long planning cycle, and
  • Complex distribution and production network.

This results in a large production run to meet the seasons demand generally in one attempt. Working capital requirements inherently favor the large organizations who are capable of making such commitments.

This supply chain structure inhibits the entry and eventual success of independent designers. They are rarely capable of making large investment required to participate in present fashion industry production and distribution network.

At Xaxii, we are addressing this problem at all levels including the very structure of fashion industry in how it designs, sources, manufactures and eventually distributes the products to end consumers. At Xaxii we are enabling smaller production runs with short planning cycle to lower the overall cost structure and bring latest in fashion to consumers quickly.

Xaxii platform creates a level playing field for independent designers, producers, suppliers and manufacturers.
