Questions we've answered for
textiles clients.

These are the actual questions clients bring to us. We've answered some version of each of them, multiple times, across multiple geographies.

India is gaining garment export market share from China. Tell us which product categories, which buyer relationships, and which factory clusters are best positioned to capture the next $5B of orders.
We're a global fashion brand evaluating a shift of 30% of our garment sourcing from Bangladesh to India. Which clusters, which suppliers, and what's the realistic cost differential we should plan for?
Our spinning mill in Coimbatore is running at 65% capacity and margins are compressing. Tell us whether the problem is cotton prices, power costs, product mix, or the global yarn market cycle.
We're acquiring a technical textiles company serving the automotive sector. How dependent is revenue on one OEM, what is the technical switching cost in practice, and what's the import substitution risk?
Who will own India's branded sportswear market in 2028 — global giants like Nike and Adidas, Indian challengers, or the D2C athleisure disruptors — and which market segment is still genuinely open?
Our garment export business relies on 3 global buyers for 70% of orders. Tell us the sourcing strategy of each buyer and whether our long-term order security is real or dangerously assumed.
