25% of fashion retailers in the UK and US say they have \u201climited or no visibility\u201d of textile items in factories and distribution centres.<\/h4>\n

The report by Avery Dennison is based on a survey of 250 senior fashion retail supply chain decison makers in the UK and US and found many were limited in item-level visibility.<\/p>\n

The research also revealed that their supply chain is \u201chighly problematic with regular disruptions\u201d for 30% of respondents, while only 22% categorised it as \u201cefficient and responsive\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Boosting Margins \u2013 The Power of Enhanced Fashion Supply Chain Visibility report<\/a> found that 61% of the smaller companies, those with annual revenue between $1m and $9.99m, feel they have full visibility.<\/p>\n

The research split the companies surveyed into six different revenue categories. Larger companies appear to be impacted the most by a lack of visibility, with 44% of firms with annual revenue above $1bn believing they have a complete view.<\/p>\n

Full visibility was found to be most challenging for medium-sized retailers with only 11% of the $250m-$499m revenue cohort saying they had achieved this. Only six out of the 250 companies surveyed had \u201cno visibility\u201d.<\/p>\n

50% of those surveyed said their company has \u201cvisibility into most items\u201d.<\/p>\n

Delia Glover, vice president of product, innovation, and solutions development at Avery Dennison, commented: \u201cTrying to operate without clear visibility into your supply chain \u2013 essentially operating in a supply chain fog \u2013 makes it impossible to track the movement of inventory and deploy data analytics to reduce waste.\u201d<\/p>\n

The research also asked the decision makers to select up to four challenges they face due to a lack of item-level visibility in their supply chain.<\/p>\n

Almost 30% cited last-minute changes to garment labelling, which rose to 42% for firms in the $500m and $999.99m revenue size bracket.\u00a0<\/p>\n

26% selected identifying supply chain disruptions in real time, 25% selected reduced agility in diverting orders to alternative suppliers or destinations, and 25% selected inability to meet compliance requirements on materials traceability.<\/p>\n
