Objective:

Monitoring the surplus of clothing inventory that lacks consumer demand sheds light on the detrimental consequences of excessive production within factories. This situation not only results in the creation of unnecessary stock but also exacerbates environmental harm. When factories produce garments that do not align with market needs, it leads to wasteful resource consumption, heightened energy utilization, and an increased carbon footprint. This overproduction contributes significantly to the already pervasive issues of textile waste and environmental degradation in the fashion industry. Implementing sustainable technology solutions becomes imperative in this context, as these innovations can enable data-driven insights, optimizing production processes to align with actual consumer demand. By adopting such strategies, the fashion industry can mitigate the environmental impact associated with overstock and foster a more ecologically responsible and economically viable approach to clothing production.Top of Form
