Encuentro Moda, a leading Spanish fashion brand, has implemented YuniquePLM solution by Gerber Technology, world leader in providing integrated solutions for manufacturing processes, to provide a centralised platform for its retail, design, and manufacturing operations.
YuniquePLM has streamlined Encuentro Moda’s product lifecycle management by decreasing time-to-market for their apparel and accessory lines. YuniquePLM, designed specifically for the fashion and retail industries, features a robust functionality in a web-based platform, for seamless integration with existing ERP systems. Teams around the world can communicate more effectively, accelerate their workflows and reduce errors, according to a press release.
Encuerto Moda president Raul Mendez said, “We look forward to fully utilising the powerful benefits that YuniquePLM offers, including optimising our internal processes, automating tasks and ultimately increasing our speed to market.”
Bill Brewster, vice president and general manager of Yunique Solutions said, “As companies like Encuerto Moda become more international in nature, the value of a centralised solution cannot be overstated. By having information in a single location, errors and miscommunication can be reduced or avoided, ultimately increasing speed-to-market.”
Encuentro Moda offers a complete line of casual and work wear for women, including jackets, knitwear, trousers, jeans, dresses and accessories. In 2014, the company reached 100 retail stores, with plans to open 15 additional stores in 2015. Its distribution network consists of four subsidiaries, located in Tenerife, Madrid, Barcelona and Shanghai.
Yunique Solutions is the product lifecycle management business unit of Gerber Technology. YuniquePLM software enables organisations to connect their creative teams with their supply chain to get the right products to market, on time and at the right cost.
Gerber’s PLM systems can help businesses of all sizes accelerate time to market, reduce lead time and improve margins by managing the details of line plans, tech packs and samples and simplifying communication and collaboration with global partners. (GK)
