There are two ways to adjust. One is to adopt the standards or norms of the industry and the other is to deviate from them. For Zara, obviously, it was the latter. I thought Zara’s rapid fire supply chain management was a bold move, cost and effort-wise, and was unconventional with relation to its peers, but it has given the company its competitive advantage. Yes Zara acted against the normal production cycle, but the good thing was that the company sustained this supply chain system, definitely

merely to sell to New Yorkers, but to convince shoppers everywhere that Zara is hip. Inditex's formula has not worked everywhere. Zara has struggled in America, for instance. It sells trendy cuts and slim fits. Outside the biggest cities, Americans have long preferred classic, roomier clothes (though this may be changing). Chinese office ladies like Zara's slim fits more, says Fraser Ramzan of Nomura, a bank. Iria Campos, a Zara designer, says Chinese women choose pastels to flatter their pale skin

Leverage Your Assets In a volatile market(不穩定市場) where product life cycles are short, it's better to own fewer assets-thus goes the conventional wisdom(傳統觀點) shared by many senior managers, stock analysts, and management gurus(領袖、專家). Zara subverts(顛覆) this logic. It produces roughly half of its products in its own factories. It buys 40% of its fabric from another Inditex firm, Comditel (accounting for almost 90% of Comditel's total sales), and it purchases its dyestuff(染料) from yet another Inditex

Motylska. Requesting discount Dear Mrs. Zara, the day before yesterday I received the Shirt I ordered from your online store of Zara. As you can probably not well imagine, I discovered that the Shirt is a little bit damaged. Some stitching is not well processed and there is also a tiny whole on the left arm of the Shirt. In consequence, I request that the store Zara credit my account with 40% of the Shirt price to an amount of $12,50. I am familiar with the store Zara since three years already. While I
