Impact of Covid-19 on Clothing and Textile industry

As the global pandemic evolves, our daily lives are being impacted in one way or another. It is now that the structure of the working cycle has been changed. Considering this scenario adapting Omni channels becomes vital for the apparel & textile business for the new normal, where customers will want to have a safer shopping in-stores & online. Going digital is the need of the hour.

Covid-19 impact on Textile Market

         There is drastic downfall in the textile business as there is a standstill in the supply chain due to this lockdown all over the world. Like many other sectors, the textile industry is also facing daunting challenges which never have been seen before, most of the textile industry has been closed for months now.

Impact of COVID-19 Scenario has also been drastic on European and the US Apparel Market – estimates that the combined apparel consumption of the EU and the US might fall to about 40-45% of the market value. There will be a tough time for clothing and textile exporters as about 60% of the country’s apparel exports are destined for European and the US markets.

Stores closed due to Covid-19

Around 50% of sales have fallen apart in the garment manufacturing industry and most of the clothing and textile industry units are at standstill because of which there is no supply in the market, leading to drastic losses not only monetary but also the damaged in the apparels which may or may not get exported further. 

A standstill exists in the industry’s entire supply chain, starting from farm to the factory to the end chain of the retailers. Due to the worldwide lockdown various transport facilities including trains and flights are suspended which is expected to hurt domestic operations in India. The pandemic is primarily expected to adversely impact exports and impact on the domestic markets with both exports as well as domestic sales falling.

The pandemic has affected the majority of India’s export market (the US and EU together constitute for approximately, 60% of the total apparel exports from India in value terms), causing order cancellations/deferral of order leading to inventory build-up and expectation of slower realization of export receivables leading to higher working capital requirements.

The industrialists will have to find a smarter way to sustain in the market with rising complications in textile manufacturing and distribution.

Digitizing the business

          There have been various fashion revolutions in the clothing and textile industry which have shown a positive impact on the growth of the clothing and textile industry for a few decades/years. 

 Considering this pandemic outcome taking the textile business model one step further will boost the business itself. There will be a rise in rapid productivity. Taking business one step further means adapting the innovative technologies which are necessary for the business in this era.

The fourth revolution in the industry is the key to sustainability and success, keeping the prime features of Industry 4.0 i.e, digitization, automation, optimization & customization, human-machine interference will give an added advantage to the early adopters.

Feeling the fabric is a thing. Experiencing it on the product of your choice is another. Doing the former is much of a simpler task but the latter one is more of time consuming. This is where 3D Showroom firmly holds a role to be played.

Let me give you an example. You wish to design and furnish your house as per your own requirements and not seek help from any expert in the same reference. You can do that any day using the 3D Showroom where you can visualize the look of your favorite fabric draped on the object you wish to. It could be your wallpaper, your curtains, floor mats, floor carpet, sofa set, cushion covers and much more.

You can do the same in case of an apparel. It could be a trouser, a shirt, a jacket, a suit. All you need to do is just select the apparel of your choice, select a fabric and witness a realistic 3D view of how the look will appear in real. All this could be done with a few mouse clicks, and there you go with the look of everything you desire using Augmented Reality.

ERP Integration
Technologies like ERP Integration allow the textile manufacturers to save working time and effort. The textile industry is constantly faced with the challenge of being in synch with the evolving markets and consumer behavior. Organizing inventory and manufacturing just in time to prevent product idling and allow immediate supply need skillful handling of the supply chain. This is why ERP integration is a novel opportunity to utilize existing infrastructure of the organization to promote further business strategics.
Design Technologies

With the need to come up with completely new stock of designs every few months, there is an increased demand for 3D simulation software that allow the designer to virtually design not only the outline of the apparel but also design garments. This also includes software that allows fashion designers to create and store their designs in a database. Textile Companies are now spending Rs 5 lakh- Rs 10 lakh at a time for CAD software that will enable their designers to research with varying texture, elaborate patterns and produce the same patterns in different colors.

Product Lifecycle Management
The popularity of PLM software is on the rise since it organizes data and analyses fashion trends to keep up with them. The ephemeral nature of the designs and fashion inclinations deems it necessary that there is flow of information between all levels of the company. By using PLM software, the adaptability to immediate changes is increased. It also reduces the wastage of resources and man hours.
