Inventory problems to be solved

Hai Lan's home has always been proud of the "Hai Lan home" model encountered unprecedented bottlenecks. This mode of light assets will outsource production links, and stores will be mainly franchising, thus boosting the rapid expansion of Hai Lan's home scale. But after expanding to a certain scale, the growth of Hai Lan's home is slow, accompanied by single store revenue decline, inventory pressure and other issues become more prominent.

The inventory of Hai Lan's home is huge. At present, there is no serious business crisis. This is related to the trust sale of "upstream credit sale system + downstream financial affiliate system".

epilogue

At present, the economic environment is unstable, consumption continues to be weak, and the overall growth rate of the garment industry is slowing down. It can be seen from the opening speed of the first half of 2019, and the company has gone through a large-scale expansion stage.

In the clothing industry, reasonable inventory can help garment enterprises catch up with the trend, and deal with possible explosions and chasing orders, so as to maximize sales and production efficiency. But inventory will also increase the risk of unsalable goods, increase business risk and increase capital turnover time, eventually affecting or even dragging down clothing enterprises.
