GLOBAL GARMENT PRODUCTION TO RENOWN BRANDS WITH HIGH QUALITY EXCELLENCE
I am a seasoned professional with a wealth of experience in the intricate world of fashion production and supply chain management.
- During my 7 years at Smartex, a renowned production powerhouse with a global presence, I had the privilege of orchestrating the production for leading fashion chains and brands across Scandinavia. Our operations spanned continents, with headquarters in Borås, offices in Hong Kong and Turkey, and production facilities in Europe.
Our portfolio encompassed a wide spectrum of garments, from elegant blazers and formal wear to casual and washed items like jerseys, denims, and knits. Among our esteemed clientele were some of the industry's most notable names, including H&M, KappAhl, Lindex, MQ, Hope, Acne, Twist & Tango, Voice of Europe, Solo, and Champagne.
End-to-End Production Maestro: My primary role was to mastermind the entire production process, from the inception of the first sample and pattern to the meticulous procurement of fabrics and accessories, the development of cutting schemes, and the precise garment specifications for our manufacturing partners. I diligently oversaw production, frequently visiting factories to ensure the highest quality standards were met. My commitment was to ensure that all clients received their samples promptly and that the final products exceeded expectations.
Sales and Design Leadership: In addition to my production responsibilities, I had the privilege of leading sales efforts for our own brand within the company. This brand was highly regarded by high-end retailers in Sweden. My duties included engaging with buyers and retailers at fashion fairs and fashion weeks, where I not only presented our products but also provided design assistance.
A Wealth of Knowledge: The experience gained during my tenure at Smartex was invaluable. It provided me with an in-depth understanding of how garments are constructed, both inside and out, thanks to our meticulous CMT (Cut, Make, Trim) production methods. Moreover, I developed a keen appreciation for the intricacies of production and supply chain management, where efficiency and excellence were our hallmarks.
- For 4 years I was consulting - as entrepreneur - renowned fashion brands within production ensuring that brands not only look good but also deliver on quality and functionality, meeting the highest standards in the industry. In an era where sustainability is paramount I've been a driving force behind integrating eco-friendly practices into brand operations. My commitment to sustainable initiatives ensures that brands not only thrive today but also contribute positively to our planet's future.
My journey at Smartex in combination with consultancy has equipped me with a unique skill set that extends beyond production. From this I understand the complexities of fashion production, supply chain dynamics, and sales in the fast-paced world of fashion and retail. As well as the need to think in new circular ways while working closer to market. If your company values quality, precision, and industry insight, I look forward to connecting with you. Together, we can navigate the intricacies of the fashion world and achieve remarkable success.
