What makes a company successful in the Textiles Industry?

WHY TEXTILES?
It's unlikely that we will all suddenly stop wearing clothes. Textiles date back thousands of years and is generally expected to be a continuously evolving cornerstone industry for many centuries to come.

Textiles are used in a wide range of our daily products from clothing to furniture, home, hospitality, automotive, for industrial purposes, and much more. A globally appreciated field that is balancing the art and science, functional and aesthetic, spanning from hobby craft to large-scale manufacturing.

Like many other industries, the textiles industry is dealing with a common set of challenges - lack of standardisation, little sharing of knowledge and best-practices, resistance to change, increasing complexity, volatile markets, cross-border legislation and finance, rapidly evolving technology, and so on. It is an increasingly challenging business landscape to operate in. In other words, an industry with an abundance of opportunity for positive change.

Today, with most businesses blindly following the lost herd, the opportunities for standing out and doing the right thing has never been more readily available. The business environment has also never been more complex. Many textiles-related businesses are still family-owned, built on the arts of scaling sales and production, one after the other. These businesses either manage to claim and develop a position in the market, or they wobble around in the price race until there's no margin left.  

An industry this old has grown tough and stubborn. It has seen countless states of chaos, and equally countless states of glory. It's an industry where most tricks has already been tried and tested. We don't claim to hold the latest tricks up our sleeve. We study the past, to help our clients avoid making the same mistakes as those who didn't make it. We plan and execute in the present, with tactics and precision for positive impact. We envision the future, with strong principles and optimistic focus on the opportunities to do better.
