Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/w2bfks/clothing) has announced the addition of the "Clothing Retailing Report 2015" report to their offering. This report provides updated analysis of the UK's clothing retailing market. Clothing retailing consists of the sale of clothing garments, including womenswear, menswear and childrenswear, and clothing accessories; therefore, this market covers a broad range of product types that are sold in the UK, including sportswear, outerwear, underwear, lingerie, hosiery and accessories, such as scarves, hats, ties, belts and gloves. However, this report will exclude the likes of footwear, uniforms and corporate workwear, in addition to accessories not deemed as clothing pieces, such as handbags or jewellery items. Focusing on the retail aspect of the clothing supply chain, this includes sales generated from all retailers involved in distributing clothing directly to the end consumer, thus excluding clothing manufacturers and wholesale distributors. Retail channels covered within the scope of the report include high-street retail chains; multiple retailers or department stores; supermarkets with clothing collections; discount or value stores; designer boutiques or high-end fashion retailers; and the ever-emerging online retailers. This industry involves clothing seen as necessities for all members of the UK population, as well as clothing in the lucrative, highly important fashion industry. The UK clothing retail market benefits from London's position among the leading four fashion capitals in the world - along with Paris, New York and Milan - with both domestic and international consumers' focus and desire to follow the latest trends made more possible in recent years thanks to developments in e-commerce. The British Fashion Council's 2014 Annual Report places the current contribution of the UK fashion industry to the UK economy at around ?26bn, with the majority of this relating to clothing retail sales.

UK Clothing Manufacturing Market Report 2014
M2 - Wed Oct 15, 7:59AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/k9vxfj/clothing) has announced the addition of the "Clothing Manufacturing Market Report 2014" report to their offering. This Market Report analyses the UK market for clothing manufacturing, with particular focus on the value of the industry within the UK economy; its position within the international clothing industry; the leading competitors engaged in manufacturing in the UK; and the current and future trends and issues impacting the market. The market is most accurately approached in terms of womenswear, menswear and childrenswear, and companies engaged in at least part of the manufacturing process of the end garment. This report estimates that the apparent UK market for the manufacture of clothing increased by 2.9% in 2013, as many companies have been reshoring production back to the UK in recent years. The majority of clothing sold in the UK continues to be imported from other global regions where production costs are lower, and the level of skill and quality of machinery is higher. Yet, rising national minimum wages (NMWs) in the People's Republic of China (PRC) and other leading international regions for clothing manufacturing have seen the prospect of outsourcing production become less beneficial to British brands. Ethical concerns in the international supply chain are also enticing more companies to reshore production back to the UK, following the Rana Plaza clothing factory collapse in 2013, which is regarded as the worst industrial accident in the clothing industry to date. Key Topics Covered: 1. Foreword 2. Introduction and Definition 3. Executive Summary 4. What's KEY in the Market? 5. Market Size, Segmentation and Forecasts 6. Competitor Analysis 7. Buying Behaviour 8. Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats 9. PEST 10. Further Sources 11.
