The authors deftly combine the cultural significance of fashion with the business acumen required to succeed in a multi-tiered global environment. --Kelly Barner, Buyers Meeting Point Fashion Logistics looks at the changing nature of fashion retailing and the implications of these changes for logistics. Each chapter contains an up-to-the minute case study illustrating how some of the major retailers around the world have adapted their supply chains to deal with the on-line revolution and changes in the global market place. Whilst the book will provide essential reading for students studying logistics and supply chain management, the book will be equally relevant for students studying fashion and retailing, particularly the topics such as the rise of fast fashion, luxury brands and sustainability. --Dorothea Carvalho, Director of Professional Development, Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport CILT
