Today in my dream my brain made a real assault, so we can say, I attended this networking. Woke up, analyzed, and recorded everything not to forget and share with you valuable information and his own conclusions.
Small and medium-sized manufacturers, I think many of You have noticed that the demand and sales are down which many companies did not survive. And this is only the beginning – then everything might be much more difficult.
But there are a few effective solutions. One of them is automation of production. The company Leg Prom is not the first day deals with the automation of production, purchasing, quality industrial sewing machines from China. Automation of garment manufacturing with leg Prom allows you to:
- high quality products;
- stability of production for the client;
- more independence from the sewers;
- the opportunity for a smooth transition to the OS.
Not a stupid man coined the phrase "divide and conquer". However, automation is a long, expensive and may entail loss due to the fact that You or Your staff is not ready to change. If management and staff are not interested and not motivated to learn, then production will never give really good results. Experts Went to the Prom can spend a whole year on training your staff, but as they say "time is money".
The company Leg Prom is interested in is to give all useful information without water for a short period. With us not only the delivery of sewing equipment without intermediaries from China with guarantee, but and integrated training of the personnel working on this equipment.
There is another solution to transfer their products partially or on a full production of large automated factories. It gives you:
- clear deadlines for the execution of orders;
- consistently high quality products;
- independence from the seamstresses.
Even if you submit your products to potential competitors, it is possible not to worry that he will choke your production, since you do bring them profit. Collaborate automated garment production is a good step for today. However, this more difficult step is to dig into this question.
As I said, many of you noted the decline in profits this year. Most do not have the opportunity to automate their production, or even no margin to outsource or partial trade. These companies are faced with many tasks that they cannot solve.
If the state is not enough seamstresses, they may not be due to poor working conditions and low earnings. Good working conditions – it's not having an oven, kettle and fridge. This stability, guarantee, high salary, good lighting shops, air conditioning, convenient location production, heat recovery, small-scale mechanization, technology, quality sewing accessories, as well as motivating staff for productive work. Seamstresses also do not like frequent changes of work. If the production of low wages, but high quality requirements, it is not surprising that it will not be delayed staff. This question is particularly acute for enterprises in the mass production of individual products by way of tailoring.
In addition, many do not know how to sell!
This is especially true for those who sell dumping, oblivious to the fact that price and value are different concepts. Many are looking for external factors negatively affecting sales, but while one is looking for problems, others find effective solutions.
It is impossible to argue that our market now is not the best. From we refused and will refuse many more markets and customers. There are factors that hinder us:
- the mass Exodus of potential customers to work abroad;
- free access to purchase branded items abroad at a very low price (while we sometimes can not sell at cost);
- lose the market and temporarily lost territory sales;
- sanctions and an official ban on the export market, for the last 30 years;
- the risks of entering the European market;
- high cost and inadequate quality products for the European market;
- lack of understanding of customer needs, market analysis and demand.
Any sewing production can not exist without sales. Most observed problems with the organization, management and staff. But I came to the same conclusion that you have to think, analyze and make my own decision.
You need to look for partners! Find 2-3 of production and to unite. Yes, perhaps it is difficult from the standpoint of ideas of his own independent business, however, we each have our own field of expertise. Can one trade now span a wide range of tasks – because of this declining effectiveness. A Union will help to systematize and production processes, without overloading each of the participants in the collaboration.
Why would these industries not to sit at the negotiating table and not to discuss the Union. One company successfully sells that will ensure the stability and price of products to enable and motivate staff. The second sews perfectly, which guarantees the quality of products and fast production time. The third possible investor who will contribute to at least partial automation. Combining 2-3 of the enterprise, you can create a large prosperous trade with good turnover, quality and profit.
For you there are only a few effective solutions to automate and to combine efforts, to either reduce production to a Studio with capsule designer collections or even survive in this market. We all should not compete with each other in their own market. We have to show a high level of competition with other producers – China, Bangladesh, India, and other.
