Sourcing
A guide to the complete sourcing path: from setting your own strategy and understanding the key stages and terminology to defining your negotiation and communication techniques.

WHY?
Sourcing is a crucial part of a brand and fashion buyers' business operations and comes with multiple challenges and risks, but with a great potential to implement a holistic quality and sustainability strategy.
The Toolbox
It provides a guide covering the common sourcing systems and processes, easy-to-use yet highly professional tools and templates to find manufacturers and suppliers, negotiate orders, and to manage stakeholder relations along the supply chain.
