Fashion’s global supply chain strategy is undergoing a reality check. The sourcing destinations that once offered the cheapest needles are becoming more expensive as tariffs are levied on major production hubs. Brands are also navigating rising unpredictability in overseas sourcing, between geopolitical upheaval, transportation delays and other disruptions.
These factors and more are leading a growing number of apparel brands to explore producing closer to home. The benefits of reshoring are plentiful: improved collaboration, shorter lead times and reduced shipping costs, to name a few. But bringing production back to the U.S. after decades of offshoring isn’t easy—labor is tight, costs are high and outdated systems can slow everything down.
This webinar will be a candid conversation with experts on what reshoring really takes today. Speakers will share insights on how automation, connected systems and smarter workforce strategies are helping apparel businesses scale up, stay competitive and make domestic production work.
Investing in U.S. manufacturing is not just about reacting to tariffs—it’s about building a foundation for long-term success.
