Micro-factories - The future of fashion manufacturing?

2020-01-27 13:38:00| Daily apparel & textile news and comment - from just-style.com

But the trend towards digitisation and mass customisation means micro-factories close to customers will be a key component in the future of fashion manufacturing, according to Roit Kathiala - with benefits including speed-to-market, flexibility and a lower carbon footprint.
