By GlobalDataFor 2023 Mango says it will continue investing in its core pillars, which are sustainability, store and technology.
From a sourcing perspective, Ruiz told Just Style the company will continue to press forward with plans to diversify its sourcing strategy.
At present Mango has 2,400 factories that are tier 1, 2 and 3. Türkiye has the largest number of garment factories at 663, followed by China at 651, and India at 214.
Ruiz told Just Style at the sidelines of the event that though the company saw significant disruption during the pandemic for its China suppliers, this has to some degree recovered and China remains a very competitive sourcing market.
“For the apparel sector, China remains very competitive. Asia, per se, is one of the key pillars for production. The pandemic disruption did mean there was opportunity to bring more production to Turkey and closer.
“But China remains competitive. We have partnered with several partners there to overcome logistical disruptions.”
