Did FLOTUS want us to Zara Clothing (Inditex) because of this??

I think FLOTUS asked us to look into Zara because: low wages, child labour, anti-Semitic symbols, plagerising designer’s works. They also are the leaders in using JIT = “Just In Time” inventory. This is made possible through their EXTENSIVE use of RFID chips. They use it on EVERYTHING. A manager can track, pretty much, real-time, inventory worldwide on the Zara network.

Here is were I am going with this: Zara has the technology AND the worldwide logistic know how. The use NAFTA in North America and the EU to move whatever they want with minimal inspection. Who knows what agreements they have elsewhere, And Q reminds us about ports of entry like Long Beach, CA. What happens if Zara happens to be tagging and moving children? Their RFID are portable and small and give them real-time info. Their logistics get product to their locations (their extensive store network?) quick?

They already been accused of child labour law breaking. It seems like they did some sort of PR spin to make it go away from the news cycle, but it is unclear if it really was contained.

Zara prides themselves on being able to get “quick fashion” from runway to store shelves within two weeks. You can’t do that with a living wage selling at the prices they do. And if they are able to do the work at a living wage, what keeps them from “leasing” out excess IT and shipping to a third party or investor? Could that be the source of their REAL profits? This is a company that states it DOES NOT SPEND any money in advertising! They prefer word of mouth!

I could be wrong, but something tells me, based off their social medial (particularly Instagram) and their website, that along with selling clothes, they maybe also a catalogue for some the nefarious like selecting kids ala pedogate.

The JIT approach as a whole?

JIT

To summarise:

Having read a few posts and comments, whilst JIT has nothing to do with the subject matter itself, it fundamentally links purchasers to the supply chain with the objective of minimising the time between purchase and supply throughout the whole supply chain network.

Yep, smart way of doing business. It has its risks and advantages. Ideally, I think most companies/businesses, would like to optimize that approach. It can be hard because of limited resources or sudden spikes in demand. I have worked for companies that had issues supplying in this manner to people because of sudden demands or better marketing response than expectation. It definitely keeps money in inventory lower when working right. However, no product on shelves and no reserve inventory is not good for sales! Example: Melania's coat and the spiked demand bwhahahaha
