Abstract
Industria de Diseno Textil, SA (Inditex), Spain''s largest listed retailer of textiles and footwear, has chalked out a five-year plan for doubling its size by 2010. The success of Inditex lies in its unique business model, which consists of a complete centralisation and vertical integration of its manufacturing and distribution processes, coupled with state-of-the-art information technology. The case takes a glance at the methods of outsourcing of garment manufacturing vis-a-vis in-house manufacturing, and the importance of the latter in the fashion industry. It also focuses on the risks for any retailer while expanding into too many foreign markets. A structured assignment ''305-188-4'' is available to accompany this case.
