Fashion
The fashion industry is moving towards an omni-channel service, where permanent product availability results in an optimal customer service experience. Nowadays, consumers not only want to enjoy their shopping experience, but they demand the same experience for the return of products.
Fast deliveries and easy returns, combined with the consumers’ demands for quality and price, place the internal logistics of fashion companies in a niche opportunity allowing them to optimise their intralogistics and reverse logistics processes.
In this context, logistics automation offers an undisputed guarantee to meet consumer demand at the right time, with the right product, at the right place.
Trends in the fashion sector:
- Omni-channel order picking
- Need for improved efficiency in reverse logistics
- Considerable growth in e-commerce
- Permanent availability of products
- Increase in the frequency and speed of deliveries
- Export of textile production: tariffs, legal requirements, etc.
- Increased fluctuation in order picking due to special promotions
