This week, 18th April, the FEL team warmly welcomed employees from M&S for a Factory Uncovered CPPD.
The session was led by the highly experienced FEL Director Caroline Ash and she gave a bespoke seminar in the Glass Room as well as an on site tour of FEL’s Haringey factory. During the tour the group can really take in every step of production and learn about what works and what doesn’t.
Caroline commented: “We had M&S in again today, it was another highly successful seminar. They enjoyed seeing the production process first hand and gave them more of an insight into costing strategies and production. We got great feedback and hope to welcome them again shortly.”
Feedback from the group included:
“I learnt so many great inside tips with regards to costing and production etc. I had a brilliant time and thoroughly enjoyed it.”
“Great factory insight into factory costs that add to a garment. I learnt so much it’s hard to write it all down! Thanks so much for your time, great training.”
“I learnt about the full process from design to finished garment. Gained more awareness of everything involved in creating a garment. Thoroughly enjoyed it was very in-depth.”
“I really enjoyed being able to see the process that we had learned about in person. It helped my understanding a lot!”
“I learnt about the process of brands working with factories and how to make it more efficient.”
