Poised for Acceleration
Leading global fashion brands have been consolidating their supplier base over the last decade. This consolidation has been more towards large, vertically integrated supplier groups which would be able to provide additional elements of product design and development, inventory management, stock holding, logistics, factory selection and multi-factory production planning. Gokaldas Exports stands to gain from this and is geared to leverage this opportunity. The company is on the precipice of a new and brilliant growth curve. Acceleration is now the key word for Gokaldas Exports.
