“Managers from every sector and geographic region of the fashion business have a stake in the ways our industry embraces disruption, innovation and change,” Gribbin said. “Ever-increasing customer demands for factors like speed to market and enhanced customer engagement will either propel our businesses to greater prosperity or leave them struggling in the past.
“Look for attendees to our Sourcing 2020 panel discussion to inquire about the growing trend of retailers sourcing closer to home and the need to incorporate technology at virtually every point along the supply chain,” he continued. “Our panel consists of experts covering virtually every area of the global fashion business. They are prepared to address questions, offer suggestions and point the way to solutions that yield faster, more efficient and more transparent sourcing, all of which will contribute to both top and bottom line growth from now through 2020, and beyond.”
