Book Description

May 2005
The global garment industry is moving from product supplier to service provider. Is your company on the leading edge, or are you falling behind? How can your factory move from being just one more garment maker to be becoming an irreplaceable asset in your customer’s supply chain? How can you the importer reduce costs and at the same time gain greater speed-to-market by transferring the processes to your overseas supplier? 70% of FOB price is material: How do you find the materials you need, for the delivery you need, and at the price you want? The quota phase out has changed the garment industry forever. To remain competitive, factories will have to provide more services and customers will have to reduce their overheads by pushing the process to the factory. Whether you are a retailer, importer, factory or agent, unless you’ve read this book, you are falling behind.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Outline to the Process, February 13, 2007
This review is from: Birnbaums Global Guide To Material Sourcing (Paperback)
I thought this book was excellent for those wanting to get a little insight into the industry and how the Sourcing process operates. Some of the realities, both obvious and not so obvious are illustrated clearly with good examples throughout the book. This is a good complimentary book as a follow-up book to his surviving the garment war!
