FASHION LINQ | Fashionlinq.com

Fashion Linq is a fashion company that actively unites years’ of experience and expertise of a number of renowned textile companies. With almost 300 employees in Europe and Asia, we provide fashion under private label and fashion accessories in the commercial segment for ladies, men, children, jeans and coats. In addition, Fashion Linq offers a wide range of house textiles in the same way. We manage the total process chain from design and styling to procurement and logistics. With our own establishments in China, Hong Kong, Bangladesh, Germany and the Netherlands, lines of communication between production locations and the European sales markets are extremely short. As a result, we can always offer our customers true ‘value for money’, optimal flexibility and an unequalled service.


We strongly believe in the culture of partnership and we put this conviction into practice each and every day. This is not only clear from our involvement with our customers and suppliers, but also from the constant quality of all our products. We regard both our customers and our suppliers as partners in one and the same commercial path. With one joint aim in mind: the development, production and sale of appealing and successful collections. It is not without reason that we can count many department stores and renowned fashion brands within Europe to our customer base.

To be able to maintain this high standard, we consider it of the utmost importance to have a permanent presence on all essential trade and production locations by means of a network of our own offices. In this manner we can adequately manage and monitor the entire chain of procurement, sourcing, quality management and logistics at site. This structure also allows us to directly incorporate new trends and questions from the market into our current basic collections. And in all this, we will at all times fulfil our promise of excellent quality at an excellent price. Now, as well as in the future.

Mission & Vision

Fashion Linq specialises in the design, sourcing and supply of private label goods in the commercial sector of the clothing and fashion accessories markets. We aim to create stylish, successful collections for our clients and to perform optimally in all components of the production and logistics process. That means that we are able to deliver the right products at the right time in the desired quality and at the right price.
We regard the retail trade and the wholesale trade in the medium and lower sector
of the European market as our primary customers. Our strength lies in:

• the development of commercially strong collections
• supply chain expertise
• efficient sourcing
• a healthy price-quality ratio
• complete reliability
• flexibility (e.g. the combination of short- and long-term deliveries)
• financial clout
• an effective and accredited code of conduct

To provide our customers with an optimum service we work towards a close partnership
and short lines of communication in every relationship. Our ultimate aim is to create a perfect balance between market demand and end-product, in terms of price, quality, efficiency and service.

Approach

Everything we do centres on the convenience and returns of our clients. Our services therefore meet strict requirements in the areas of product development, design, procurement, production and logistics – the spearheads of our organisation. To meet our customers' requirements we have set up our business operations on the basis of professional and advanced IT. And in such a way that we can successfully offer a complete range of services.
But even more important are the people behind the services: our own people and our
business partners. Together they form our main capital. Their dedication, professionalism
and experience determine our success and facilitate our company's healthy growth. It will go without saying that we act in conformity with the current standards of corporate social responsibility and our own code of conduct.



Our success can be attributed directly to our dynamic approach, in which we closely monitor progress at all stages of production. Specialisation and partnership within our overall business column improve efficiency. Our network of offices makes it possible for us to lead the entire process from design to end-product over fewer stopping points. That is an approach that directly benefits our clients.

Locations

Fashion Linq has its own procurement and sales offices in the Netherlands, Germany, China, Hong Kong, Pakistan and Bangladesh. We coordinate all procurement and production in the Far East from our offices in China, Hong Kong, Pakistan and Bangladesh.

The sales offices in the Netherlands and Germany are responsible for the sales and after-sales for all of our European clients. The combination of a local presence in our production and sales countries means that we are always able to respond quickly and efficiently to the market and to each specific demand.

Divisions

Fashion Linq's activities are divided over a number of experienced and product-specific divisions. These divisions possess highly specialised product knowledge that we constantly use for and offer to our clients. Each division attends to the entire process from design to sale with a single aim in mind: clients who are satisfied in all respects with the product and the service – in terms of quality, efficiency and flexibility. That is how we set out to guarantee maximum value for money for the clients of each of our divisions.
This approach applies to all collections that are placed in the following divisions:

• ladies' fashion
• men's fashion
• children's fashion
• denim/jeans
• outerwear
• 'short-term' deliveries
• production

Our sales office Fashion Connections carries out the sales activities for these divisions on the German market from Gronau in Germany.



Our independent sister organisations Belt (leather belts and sashes) and Wink (trendy fashion accessories) work in the same spirit as Fashion Linq and are able to give each fashion collection an unexpected finishing touch. Both organisations operate from a single central location in Eindhoven.



Permanently up-to-date
Fashion Linq develops multiple women's, men's and children's collections a year (spring/summer and autumn/winter) for the fashion divisions. To stay up-to-date at all times our styling teams keep abreast of the latest trends throughout the year by closely monitoring the latest designs, textiles, colours and finishes.

specialist fields

Specialisation is the future. Those who focus sharply on specific areas of the fashion spectrum are able to operate more quickly and efficiently. That is why we are set up for specialisation in various areas. Not only have we divided our activities over a number of specialist product divisions, we also have experts for each individual discipline.
Trendwatching is something completely different from styling and quality control and calls for skills other than those needed for sales and merchandising. For that reason our expertise is spread over several core competencies which ultimately culminate in an optimum product.
