The market has grown over the last two decades on account of brand proliferation and developing retail network and more recently due to new product category creations. High consumer awareness and exposure to international trends has cut the product life cycles short. Topping this up, the last 12-18 months has witnessed the growth of the online platform offering an alternate, convenient and cost effective shopping option for consumers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It is necessary that fashion retailers manage their operations efficiently both in terms of managing a complex and responsive supply chain at the back end and delighting the customers at the store with great product offers and customer service. Adopting lean practices can help fashion retailers to achieve significant improvements in store profitability and customer satisfaction, making their retail business sustainable through a positive impact on bottom-line.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The concept of lean philosophy, pioneered by Toyota, is built on the premise that inventory hides problems. The basic tenet of this philosophy is that keeping the inventory low will highlight the problems that can be dealt with and fixed immediately instead of maintaining inventory in anticipation of any bottlenecks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cLean retailing\u201d is an emerging concept and has&nbsp; already been adopted by retail organisations in the Western countries using technology such as barcodes, RFID (across the product value chain from raw material sourcing through production through final delivery at the retail store) and item-level inventory management and network architectures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In an ideal scenario a retail organization would be lean at both the store and the distribution center. The organization would leverage technology such as RFID to uniquely identify the movement of its inventory accurately and use fulfillment logic as per the store\u2019s merchandizing principle to have replenishments in tune with customer demand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Some international retailers that have adopted lean retailing techniques include Wal-Mart, Macy\u2019s, Bloomingdale\u2019s, The Gap and J. C. Penny. Applying lean philosophy to fashion retail in India may sound like an avante garde concept as of now. However, there are some leading large retailers in India such as the Future Group who are early adopters and have already adopted lean practices in their retail supply chain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">An understanding of what lean retailing is and some of its principles can help in appreciating how this concept can make the apparel retail business more sustainable. Lean retailing aims to continuously eliminate \u201cwaste\u201d from the retail value chain, waste being defined as any activity\/process that is not of \u201cvalue\u201d to the customer. A fundamental principle of lean retail is to identify customers and define the \u201cvalue\u201d as those elements of products or service that the customer believes he should be paying for, not necessarily those that add value to the product.&nbsp; Further the value should be delivered to the customer \u201cfirst-time right every time\u201d so that waste is minimized.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Lean retailing requires simplifying the workflow design in delivering products to customer. Given that the connotation of value is customer-centric, simplifying the workflow design requires streamlining the core and associated processes so that any kind of waste is eliminated. Further pull-system drives replenishment at the stores (and the shelf) based on what customers want \u201cjust-in-time\u201d (neither before nor after the time customer demands). This results in a value flow as pulled by the customer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Those practising lean retail have invested in information technology that allows the stores to share sales data in real time with their suppliers. New orders for a given product maybe automatically placed with the supplier as soon as an item is scanned at the check-out counter (subject to minimum order size criteria). Smaller stores may use visual systems wherein the sales staff can gauge through the empty shelf space the products that have been sold and that need to be re-ordered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Removing bottlenecks throughout the supply chain is another principle driving lean retail. It entails redesigning processes to eliminate activities that prevent the free flow of products to the customer. Further, lean retail requires following a culture of continuous improvement. Continuous improvement (or \u201cKaizen\u201d) focuses on small improvements across the value chain that rolls up into significant improvements at an overall level.&nbsp; Kaizens not only can lead to elimination of wasted effort, time, materials, and motion but also focus on bringing in innovations that lead to things being done faster, better, cheaper and easier. &nbsp;Involvement of staff at the lowest levels is very important in Kaizen activities and that means that companies must invest in training, up-skilling their talent pool in Lean Principles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In the context of apparel retail business, lean retail can help in improving organisational responsiveness to customer needs, the speed with which the products are delivered to them and meet their expectations as per the latest trends. Systematic application of lean principles translates in increased throughput (Sales), with lower Work in Process (Investments) and as per customer requirements of Quality, Design, Trends and Time. Improved information visibility across the chain leads to reduced instances of out of stock and excess inventory at the same time, minimising inventory control costs and reducing shrinkage. At the front-end lean retail may lead to redesigned in-store processes and systems for consistency in frontline behaviors to provide standard customer experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">With the focus on training and involvement of the workforce, Lean principles have resulted in improving employee satisfaction without increasing labour costs that in turn positively impacts revenues and profitability. Some retailers in the West have reported reducing their store labour costs by 10-20 percent, inventory costs by 10-30 percent, and costs associated with stock outs by 20-75 percent on account of lean retail.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In addition to top-line and bottom-line impact, lean retailing by enhancing the enthusiasm and motivation of the frontline staff creates distinctive shopping experiences for customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Inditex, the world\u2019s largest clothing retailer with Zara as its flagship brand, has successfully achieved supply chain excellence following lean principles. &nbsp;It targets fashion conscious young women and is able to spot trends as they emerge and deliver new products to stores quickly thereby establishing its position as the leading fast fashion retailer. The product development processes is based on customer pull-system. Its design team reviews the sales and inventory reports on a daily basis to identify what is selling and what is not. &nbsp;Additionally, regular visits to the field provide insights into the customers\u2019 perceptions that can never be captured in the sales and inventory reports. Critical information about customer feedback is widely shared by store managers, buyers, merchandisers, designers and the production team in an open plan office at the company\u2019s headquarters. Frequent, real time discussions and interactions within the team help them to understand the market situation and identify trends and opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Further, Zara manufactures the products in small lots and many styles are typically not repeated. Style cues for replenishments are derived from real time customer demand. At the back end, Zara holds inventory of raw materials and unfinished goods with its supply partners which may be local or offshore manufacturers. Typically, the fashion merchandise is produced at the local manufacturing base and quickly delivered while the staple low-variation range is produced offshore at cheaper costs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Following lean retail practices implies a higher stock turn and frequent replenishments by the suppliers based on real-time sales. Building and maintaining reliable and responsive suppliers through win-win partnerships, is imperative to realize the success of lean retail implementation as high stock turns and frequent replenishments involves the commitment and involvement of the entire supplier base.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Like in any transformational effort, change management plays a critical role in reaping the benefits of lean retail. The whole philosophy requires paradigm shift in attitudes, behaviors and mind sets of those involved upstream and downstream across the value chain. Training, communicating and inspiring the front end staff is thus an important aspect in the overall success and companies need to device a compelling vision that is shared by employees across functions and hierarchy across the entire chain.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Applying lean philosophy to fashion retail in India may sound like an avante garde concept as of now.
