Producing Knitwear in Karachi:
Today's episode takes us to knitwear manufacturing straight from Karachi with Ahmed Altaf, CEO of AM Group, who shares his invaluable journey from academics to leading a family-run knitwear facility. Gain insights into what life is like in Pakistan's largest city and learn why Pakistan is a critical player in the global apparel market. Ahmed debunks common myths about working with knitwear manufacturers and highlights the benefits of a vertically integrated factory setup.
Transforming Outdated Processes:
The adoption of the WiMetrix system, sparked by the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, has revolutionised transparency and efficiency in AM's operations. For Ahmed, driving the shift towards a data-driven approach, redefining quality control, and setting new standards in the industry is what will keep his factory and his industry alive. Counting behemoths like Walmart as their clients, and receiving the Responsible Sourcing Certificate from the retailer, sheds light on the expectations and demands that brands are making on Pakistani fashion manufacturers. But is it working? Find out in this episode.
