Sooner or later, all apparel companies look into manufacturing some or all of their products outside of the United States. But if you’re going to do it, better know how to do it right. Manufacturing offshore can reduce the cost of production, help get a product to market faster and reduce delivery costs. The trick is to stay on top of regulations, stay in tune with cultural differences, and to stay in control of deadlines and costs without losing quality. Thanks to Austin, you will end this class with a game plan for yourself or your employer.
