THE INDUSTRY
The apparel industry is experiencing disruption from many
directions. Concern over the environmental impact of textile
and apparel production, waste, water pollution and the
carbon footprint of products contributes to sourcing more
eco-friendly fibres, reduction of transportation in the supply
chain, reduction of harmful chemicals, and other strategies
for improving sustainability measures. Concern over
working conditions, living wages and questionable
treatment of workers in third world countries has led to
greater interest in reshoring production or more carefully
selecting international partners. New technologies are also
disruptive, and can lead to greater efficiency, less waste
and fewer errors, yet are expensive to implement and need
to be properly utilized to provide intended return on
investment.
