🎙️ Episode 27 of Honest, not Perfect is out now!

We’re joined by Marguerite LeRolland, Global Insight Manager at Euromonitor International, to unpack how geopolitical tensions, shifting trade relationships and economic uncertainty are reshaping fashion’s global supply chains.

From nearshoring and regionalisation to evolving sourcing strategies, we explore what it means for fashion to operate in an era of “polycrisis.”

Our team have been out and about already this month! ✈️
 
Last week, Show Director Suzanne Ellingham and Key Account Director Pete Doolan were in Las Vegas, where they took the opportunity to visit MAGIC, catching up with some of our customers who were in the states and checking out first hand whats happening in the USA and how the sourcing landscape is evolving there. 
 
We’re always looking beyond our own show, staying connected to the wider industry and gathering fresh ideas and insights as we continue planning what’s next for Source Fashion 🌟
