For our Cover Story of AOI March issue, we caught up with Daniel Harrari, CEO of Lectra, who’s been leading the company for almost 35 years. With a reported total revenue of € 478 million (about US $ 500 million) in 2023, Lectra is driving Industry 4.0 forward and continuing to lead transformation in the industry by expanding the fashion value chain with new SaaS solutions. On the eve of International Women’s Day being celebrated on 8th March 2025, we have come up with our second edition of AO Women of Impact under our Lead Story column just like last year. Honouring the women leaders shaping the future of India’s fashion industry, we have herein tried to include stories of powerhouse women from all domains – be it retail, sustainability, design, manufacturing, technology, social impact or even education. We hope you love reading these stories as much as we loved putting them together!
Under our Thought Leadership section, Kamalendu Sith, GM-Supply Chain Excellence and Digital Transformation Lead of Gokaldas Exports discusses in detail about the game-changing impact of digital transformation on his company’s growth and innovation right from order traceability, optimum utilisation of materials and machinery to lead time reduction, better decision making and increase in productivity.
Under our Sustainability section, we have covered the three new types of exclusive yarns introduced by Vardhman Textiles Ltd., which are of superior quality and are made of eco-friendly materials like organic cotton, recycled polyester and plant-based fibres.
In light of the recent controversy sparked by L&T’s Chairman about ‘how long you can stare at your wife’, we turned to top leaders from the fashion industry about their perspective on ‘Work-Life Balance’ and put their varied and engaging responses together under our ‘Retail Pulse India’ column.
Stay tuned for our other regular columns like Fashion Business, Trends in Focus, Designers and Labels, My Fashion Life and so on.
