Today’s apparel market is characterized by complex global supply chains, growing governmental regulations, increasing consumer demands for documented socially and environmentally responsible products, and shorter production lead times. Access to up-to- date, accurate information about suppliers and products helps manufacturers, wholesalers, brands, and retailers produce and market successful, compliant apparel lines. Cloud-based technology like ecVision’s and global product and facility certifications like the OEKO-TEX Standard 100 and STeP by OEKO-TEX are a powerful combination for increasing communication and collaboration between apparel companies and their many suppliers around the world.
