Talon International, a provider of sustainable solutions for
zippers and trims, has joined the CFDA’s Supply Chain Collective.
The Supply Chain Collective is a new initiative that works to bring
greater value to the nearly 500 American designers who are members of
the CFDA. Talon International’s inclusion in the collective means that
it will provide its services to CFDA members through its use of
materials such as ocean waste, recycled polyester, eco plating, BCI
cotton and oxo-biodegradable polybags. It will also offer full sets of
marketing materials curated to give CFDA members an edge in the
industry.
“The Supply Chain Collective aims to help alleviate hurdles related
to topics such as sustainable solutions for materials, packaging,
hangers and plastics, logistics for fulfillment, warehousing and
distribution, inventory management, size inclusivity, and artisan
sourcing, among others,” said Cal McNeil, program manager at the CFDA
in a statement.
“The inaugural Supply Chain Collective partners include:
ApparelMagic, Arch & Hook, Bergen Logistics, KEDIC Fashion Workshop,
Nest, SwatchOn, Talon International Inc., and TIPA.”
