Book by the Hour: Online – Phone Turning old clothes into pulp to make new clothes. The fashion industry generates more greenhouse gases than international aviation and shipping combined. If that was not bad enough, less than 1% of textile clothing is recycled. But one fashion entrepreneur has patented a process to turn old clothes into pulp, which in turn can be made into new garments. Details. 3-D printing garments to reduce waste. At the manufacturing level, a large amount of usable material is wasted due to fabric cut-offs during production and mass-produced clothing that often goes unsold. Now, a fashion-meets-tech company is doing its part to end that unsustainable cycle. Son of a Tailor has been around since 2014, already known for creating custom, made-to-order T-shirts, and now it is aiming to eliminate waste even further with the world’s first 3D-knitted pullover sweater. How? 3 ways customer relationships will change forever in light of COVID-19 The end goal for a customer-centric business is customer loyalty. A dedicated customer base is key to surviving disruption, as they will continue to depend on your services even in challenging climates. But true customer-centricity is no set-and-forget solution. Retaining loyalty is about adapting your offering depending on the changing needs of your customers and, in some instances, knowing what they want before they do. This is where the modern reality of customer-centricity starts to connect operations with experiences, creating new dimensions of customer excellence. How? Starting a business that people need or diversify into a new area All businesses succeed by solving real problems, but most people have no idea where to start. How do you pick the products or services you’ll turn into your problem-solving enterprises? No matter how you spent the first part of your life and career, you’ve learned to be good at something. It can be anything from gardening in small spaces to designing fire safety systems. We all have a specialty. This doesn’t mean you have to be the world’s authority on a subject; it just means you can talk competently about solving problems in that niche of the world. Learn more. Key trends that will influence what customers buy The pandemic has brought about some changes, however our key consumer trends were in the making well before COVID-19 showed up.

From a small gathering of 40 artisan producers at Pier 92 to over 150 companies showing alongside 2,600+ exhibitors at NY NOW®, it’s clear to see its success. This growth is a testament that sourcing fair trade, ethically sourced products is not a trend but a way in which people are choosing to live their lives. Consumers are demanding to know where products are being made, by who, and in what working conditions. Purchasing of artisan made products is here to stay and as we enter our 7th edition of Artisan Resource, we’re proud to be able to continue to offer this unique platform for artisans to bring their goods to the Market and to you. New this August is the launch of our Buyer Matchmaking booth. Have you ever wondered which countries were best for sourcing woven sisal bowls, felt ornaments or palm baskets? Well wonder no more. Stop by the matchmaking booth at the rear of the 1000 aisle to meet with a staff member who can guide you in the right direction. Someone will be there ready to help you identify artisan groups best suited to your needs as well as provide tips on how to build successful relationships with these overseas vendors.
