There is an increased interest and demand for fashion within Lithuania but limited literature regarding this developing industry, therefore comparators are drawn from available literature about the more established British fashion industry. A principal objective to this enquiry was to investigate how the Lithuanian fashion houses used marketing tools to achieve popularity and fame. Qualitative, in-depth and semi-structured interviews with three Lithuanian designers at their studios in Lithuania were conducted about how they became established and the roles of marketing, branding and PR, creativity and talent, consumer’s trust and reliance and finances. Results indicate the following helped the designer entering the industry: identifying a niche market, combining talent and creativity with business knowledge, a good preparation for the industry, finance management, appropriate funding, business partner and networking, the importance of branding, and the implications with the consumers’ addiction to famous brands. This research contributes to the existing literature on the Lithuanian fashion industry and the general scholarly debate on the importance of marketing and branding in the fashion industry. The study identifies prospects for and opportunities to improve the Lithuanian fashion industry and concludes with recommendations for the designer’s preparation for the industry, and identifies issues for further research such as: individual clients versus collections, the right time to start, consumerism, or fashion in the future. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................................................... 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS .............................................................................................................. 4 LIST OF TABLES ...................................................................................................................................... 10 LIST OF FIGURES .................................................................................................................................... 11 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ....................................................................................................................... 12 CHAPTER 1.

  • Belarus Is Expanding Its Textile and Clothing Industry
    TEXTINATION NEWSLINE 03-28-2017 B ELARUS IS EXPANDING I T S T EXTILE AND C L O T H I N G I NDUSTRY PLANNED ABOLITION OF EU IMPORT QUOTAS ALLOWS MORE FOREIGN COMMITMENTS Minsk (GTAI) - The textile and clothing industry of the Republic of Belarus faces great challenges. It has to become more efficient, should produce more market-orientated and make greater use of its export potential. The sector has great hopes on the by the European Union planned abolition of quotas for Belarusian textiles and clothing products. There are then more than ever good opportunities for the subcontracting finishing pro- cess. The textile and clothing industry has traditionally been one of the most important sectors of the manufacturing industry in the Republic of Belarus. As a result of the sharp decline of the local pur- chasing power and of the main export market Russia, the sector has suffered a severe setback in the years 2013 to 2015. Since the second half of 2016 it is on an upswing again. According to pre- liminary data, the output has risen in 2016 by 4.6% to EUR 1.41 billion compared to 2015. Pro- duced were 146.8 million sqm. of fabrics, 40.4 million pieces of knitwear, 147.0 million pairs of stockings and 19.9 million sqm. of carpet products. Nevertheless the textile and clothing industry continues to suffer from a weak capacity utilization, an inade- quate management and marketing as well as from a considerable backlog in the technological renewal of the equipment park. The implementation of an industry support program for the period from 2016 to 2020 should pro- vide for a remedy.

  • OUTSOURCING, WEALTH CREATION, and Smes: THE
    OUTSOURCING, WEALTH CREATION, AND SMEs: THE INTERNATIONALIZATION OF SERVICES WITHIN THE GLOBAL TEXTILES AND APPAREL INDUSTRY: EASTERN EUROPE AND SOUTH AFRICA – 1989-2004 Sanford L. Moskowitz, Ph.D. Assistant Professor Department of Management Simons Hall – Room 266 Saint John’s University Collegeville, MN 56321 Tel: (320) 363-3523 Email: [email protected] Jenna E.Gebeke College of Saint Benedict/St. John’s University Collegeville, MN 56321 Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper examines the global textiles and apparel industry within Eastern Europe and South Africa during the period of rapid globalization (from 1980 to 2003). In doing so, this paper develops two “outsourcing” models by which heretofore low-value-added “blue-collar” small and medium-sized firms (SMEs) capture increasing wealth and expand internationally by evolving into high-value added global service providers. An important way in which developing regions and countries can gain access to Western markets and capital is through their initial role as host countries to Western industry in outsourcing activity. Indeed, recent research shows a strong connection between such outsourcing activity by Western companies in developing countries and the long-term economic growth of these developing “host” countries. This link exists because, from its experience in contracting to more advanced economies, over time, the host country gains knowledge, technology, business skills, and, most importantly, international contacts, especially within the global service network.
