Garment exporting factory Flashcards
Who do these factories export shirts to
foreign buyers, businesspersons from the US and Europe who
run a chain of stores
How do the buyers do buissness
they do buissness on their own terms
What are the terms of the buyers
1) They demand the lowest prices from the supplier
2) they set high standards for quality of production and timely delivery
3) Any defects or delay in delivery is dealt with strictly
Why do the garment exporters agree to these demands
As they want to get more orders and increase their buissness
How do factories meet these conditions by buyers
They try to cut costs -
They get the maximum work out of the workers at
the lowest possible wages
What are the benifits of cutting costs
they can maximise their own profits and also supply the
garments to foreign buyers at a cheap price
Why do you think more women are employed in the Impex garment
factory
As the factory employs people on a temporary basis
Most women don’t want permanent jobs
What do you mean by “employ on a temporary basis”
It means that the employer can ask the employee to leave whenever they feel that their services arn’t required
