4 Key Trends 4 Key Trends / Company Overview Expanding into emerging markets Capturing the growth opportunity in emerging domestic markets Many businesses still seem to regard expanding outside North America, Europe or Japan. Zara, H&M, Uniqlo and GAP are growing fast in these economies, particularly in places such as China where thriving domestic markets are helping them expand. Shifting west inland or overseas With China economy growth, and its wage rises gradually, manufacturers are facing a squeeze. Shifting Southeast Asia or China inland where wages are lower is a natural solution. Consider relocating at least some of their production to countries with cheaper work forces. Looking outside for garment production Less cost-efficient local players are squeezed out. Not only US retailers but also Chinese retailers diverse production locations to mitigate China cost hike Makalot could take more market share with its low-cost production sits in SE Asia. Further consolidation Help buyers manage cost (Cut procurement cost) Credit rating matters too (Avoid supply disruption) 4
