About the Book

Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, language: English, abstract: In 1995, women's jeans were a $2 billion fashion category in the US and growing fast.

However, the overall supply chain from product design to retail sales was still complex, expensive and slow. In spite of substantial improvements in recent years, (including extensive use of "EDI", there was still an eight-month lag, on average, between ordering cotton fabric and selling the final pair of jeans. The industry average lag was still well over twelve months in 1995. The financial footprint for one pair of women's jeans sold through the normal wholesale channel compared to one pair sold through an Original Levi's
