Factory Uncovered Seminars and Tours Inspire International Visitors

Led by Caroline Ash, Fashion-Enter Ltd in Haringey continues to support education and industry learning through its bespoke seminars and Factory Uncovered tours. Designed to fully explain the garment manufacturing process, the sessions can be tailored to align with coursework, provide CPPD insight for industry professionals, and include practical learning tasks.

During the week commencing 11th May, Caroline welcomed three visiting groups to the Fashion-Enter Ltd facility: the Catherine Sews YouTube group from Canada, students from Washington State University, and students from Belmont University.

Across the sessions, participants explored key topics including sustainability, UK garment manufacturing, repair and reprocessing, AI technology, and the full garment production process within an ethical and compliant factory environment. The tours provided a unique behind-the-scenes insight into modern manufacturing practices and demonstrated how innovation and responsible production can work hand in hand.

The response from attendees was overwhelmingly positive, with participants praising both the educational value of the seminars and the inspirational work being carried out at Fashion-Enter Ltd.
