Mr. Vineet Kanaujia, GM – Marketing, Safexpress stated “The Apparel Industry in India is a highly dynamic industry witnessing change each day.
The changing lifestyle patterns, the ever-increasing purchasing power and the growing style-consciousness in the youth are the main factors driving the growth of this Industry.
The full potential of the industry would only be realized when SCM and Logistics services begin playing a bigger role in the current business scenario.
A seamless movement of products right from pick-up of raw or semi-finished products from the manufacturer, to managing the packaging of products, to delivering the products right at the store-shelves is a challenging task.
