Pandemic showed fashion industry can adapt to changes: Tukatech

Pandemic showed that the fashion industry is capable of adapting their business model to a change in circumstances as people who spent years rejecting 3D sampling were desperate to adopt the technology so they could work remotely, according to Tukatech founder Ram Sareen. Many businesses will continue working remotely even after the pandemic is over.

More than anything, the pandemic showed how exposed the supply chains are, and that made a lot of people want to manufacture closer to the market they sell to, Sareen told Fibre2Fashion in an exclusive interview.

He added that the fashion industry needs to understand that the pandemic did not really change anything. It only accelerated the timeline for what was already on its way.
