What this course is

A free, self-paced course on the retail end of garments: retail merchandising and e-commerce operations, omnichannel inventory and fulfilment, customer experience and product use, returns and reverse logistics, product durability and care, resale, repair and refurbishment, and textile circularity with extended producer responsibility. Three modules, each ending with a five-question quiz.

Who it is for

  • • Retail and e-commerce staff in apparel brands
  • • Merchandisers and planners who own sell-through and markdowns
  • • Sustainability and operations staff building circular programmes
  • • Garment factory staff who want to understand the retail end of their product

What you will be able to do

  • • Plan assortments and markdowns from sell-through data rather than instinct
  • • Keep stock consistent across store and online channels without overselling
  • • Classify returns into avoidable and unavoidable causes and fix the avoidable ones
  • • Route returned goods to resale, repair or recycling with clear condition standards
  • • Explain what textile extended producer responsibility asks of a brand and what data it needs
