But with 17 stores opened, someone must be seeing evidence the opening costs are worth funding. ../read more

The Twelve (Probable) Laws of Apparel Sourcing 4: What recession didn’t kill, recovery won’t cure

Throughout the world since mid 2008, garment factories have been reportedly closing, and workers losing their jobs, at unprecedented rates. Naturally this has been blamed on the recession. The worst affected countries need to do a great deal more than just hope for a recovery. And, right now, there's very little evidence that many appreciate that. Never mind what that great deal more is. ../read more

The Twelve (Probable) Laws of Apparel Sourcing 2010-2012. 1: There are no new sourcing hotspots.

Twelve basic principles have been behind apparel sourcing over the past couple of years. Are they unchangeable laws, though?

The Source is Clothesource's monthly newsletter.

Each month, we summarise major events in the world's apparel exporting countries and analyse what they mean for clothing buyers and sellers. We look at changes in trade rules and the really important market-influencing events in the major apparel importing countries. And we keep a permanent eye on what's happening in the world's major buying companies that's likely to influence how clothes are bought and sold.

Using the Clothesource Knowledge Base, we put these events into context, looking at how prices and market shares are actually influenced by events. And we apply the same rigour and scepticism to stories about Albania or El Salvador as we do to what's going on in India and China.
