FedEx Express to provide substantial financial support and trade advice to fashion houses (UK)
FedEx Express will be providing substantial financial support and trade advice to the winner of a coveted award for up and coming fashion houses.
FedEx Express, which is an expert at providing logistic support to fashion and luxury brands, is seeking entrants for the New Exporter category of the UK Fashion Export Award 2008 with GBP 20,000 worth of financial and advisory support on offer to the winner.
Last year’s winner, Goat, which concentrates on timeless sophisticated pieces in the most luxurious yarns and fabrics, has already benefited from advice on service solutions and new target markets.
FedEx Express is sponsoring a salon presentation for Goat on March 18, which will be a further opportunity for Goat to increase their visibility. FedEx Express also provided broad ranging support for Goat during London Fashion Week (February 10 to 13).
Since Goat won the prize last year, FedEx Express has assisted the fashion house with automation, providing team training on key online tools with further training scheduled for the near future.
FedEx Express also advised and implemented a service solution for urgent sample delivery to Hong Kong and Europe and looked at the possibility of the United States as a new target market for Goat in the future.
Fashion houses with less than two years exporting experience can still apply for the 2008 award by filling in the application form.
