A fashion giant gains a competitive edge by adopting an integrated supply chain model with Maersk, that enhances its efficiency and agility.
The background
A renowned American fashion giant found itself tangled in a knotty supply chain chaos. The fast-paced world of fashion was moving at warp speed, while their upstream operations were stuck in slow motion. This had a domino effect, impacting everything from product availability to business performance.
The challenge
The fashion company's supply chain was a complex imbalance of operations, lost in its inefficiencies. Lacking a central conductor to harmonise the flow of goods, each stage in the supply chain operated in isolation.

This fragmented approach led to a series of logistical challenges, like:

The fashion giant needed a reliable logistics partner that could streamline their supply chain with a robust comprehensive strategy in place.

The partnership with Maersk yielded some impressive results, allowing the customer to have complete control and visibility over their supply chain, while Maersk managed it for them. Their supply chain saw significant changes, like:
