Production
Equipment
We have invested in the latest apparel
manufacturing equipment. This includes a comprehensive
range of automated and semi-automated machinery. Our
objective is to improve the quality of the product
that we can offer our customers as well as increase
the productivity of our manufacturing operations.
Production
Technology
A major initiative we have been working
on involves the use of an electronic tagging system
that allows us to track the flow of every garment
through the production process. We can monitor the
status of an order on a real-time basis. In due course
this information will be made available to our customers
via Internet. They can then track the status of their
order as it moves through the production process,
from cutting the fabric to packing the finished garment.
Management
Information Systems
We have recently completed a multi-year
implementation of an integrated ERP solution to optimize
the efficiency of our business processes, and to exercise
greater control over our expanding Global Production
Network. This is yet another example of our utilization
of technology to augument our production capabilities.
From color spectrometers to the latest in automatic
cutting machines, we are continually investing in
improvements.We are also developing Internet based
tools that will allow us to collaborate more closely
with our partners and be more responsive to our customers'
requirements.
