What does this programme cover?

A weak fashion retail supply chain shows up as bestsellers sold out in week two, slow lines buried in markdown, missing sizes in half the doors and cash tied up in stock bought on last season's guess. This Core Concept course trains merchandisers, buyers, planners and apparel sourcing staff to build a season from the fashion calendar through range architecture, open-to-buy, vendor lead times, allocation, in-season chase decisions and clearance. Participants produce a Seasonal Merchandise and Supply Plan for a case fashion category, with a buy budget, flow calendar and markdown cadence.
