Reflecting on 2024: A Year of Growth, Challenges, and Transformative Change in Fashion 🎉 As we step into 2025, it’s the perfect moment to reflect on the extraordinary journey that 2024 took us on. The past year has been transformative for the fashion and manufacturing sectors, and for us at Fashion-Enter Ltd 👗 👔 , it was a year that pushed boundaries, sparked innovation, and deepened our commitment to ethical and sustainable practices. The Shifts That Shaped 2024 2024 saw seismic shifts in the industry, driven by advancements in technology, heightened awareness of sustainability, and the ever-changing consumer landscape. Artificial intelligence redefined design, production, and retail, while local and sustainable manufacturing gained momentum. At Fashion-Enter, we were at the heart of these movements. From expanding our facilities in Leicester and Wales to launching initiatives like Hope-FX and corporate upcycling courses, we witnessed firsthand the appetite for meaningful change. Key Highlights from Our Year + The Launch of the Leicester Fashion Hub - September 2024 marked the opening of our Leicester Fashion Hub, a vibrant space combining education, technology, and manufacturing. + Embracing AI in Manufacturing - We proudly took part in the ASBCI Autumn Conference, showcasing how AI is revolutionising fashion. From optimising patterns to predicting trends, technology allowed us to streamline processes while maintaining craftsmanship. + Celebrating Milestones and Collaboration - 2024 was also a year of celebration, including the 20th anniversary of the LCB Depot in Leicester. Events like these highlighted the strength of community and partnerships in driving the industry forward. + Challenges We Faced - No year is without its challenges, and 2024 tested our resilience. From navigating supply chain disruptions to balancing rising raw material costs, we leaned on our ethos of innovation and adaptability to find solutions. Looking Ahead to 2025 As we move into 2025, we are filled with optimism. This year promises greater opportunities, with the #LeicesterMade Trade Show on April 17th set to be a landmark event for UK manufacturing. It will bring together designers, brands, #retailers, and #manufacturers to foster collaboration and showcase the #sustainable and financial benefits of local #production. A Heartfelt Thanks None of this would have been possible without our team, clients, and community. Together, we’ve redefined UK fashion manufacturing—innovative, #ethical, and inclusive.
