Going with the flow
- “Our platform is more than a supply chain solution; it’s a fashion revolution leveraging Vietnam’s central position in the global supply chain, democratizing access to quality manufacturing and ethical production.” – Khanh Le, Founder & CEO of 500-backed fashion tech platform Inflow.
- Inflow’s innovation has landed the team a US$2M seed round to bring the sourcing and manufacturing advantages of a tech-enabled supply chain to fashion brands of all sizes.
- Through a user-friendly dashboard with real-time tracking, users gain full visibility into the supply chain, from inventory forecasts to data-driven factory matching to merchandise management.
- Inflow’s production network includes over 150 carefully pre-vetted and ethical manufacturers and suppliers in Vietnam. By enhancing these capabilities, fashion brands of all sizes can compete on a level playing field.
- Need to get a sample quickly, or have a small-batch order fulfilled? Minimum order quantities (MOQs) start from 50 units, allowing brands to scale production based on market demand, reduce design-to-production cycles from months to weeks, and prevent wastage that comes with large MOQs.
- Last year, the team saw a revenue surge of more than 15x. Over 80 fashion brands across Southeast Asia tap on Inflow for the design-to-production of their garments, and the list is growing.
- The fresh funds will go towards design R&D and the development of new technologies for supply chain and manufacturing. The team will also enhance their product offerings to help brands rapidly bring new designs to market within 30 days at minimum order quantities of 50 pieces.
- “The global garment industry, like many others, is diversifying its reliance on China for manufacturing. Inflow’s fashion supply chain technology could capture this huge onshoring opportunity for Vietnam through a connected, convenient, and scalable platform.” – Vishal Harnal, Managing Partner, 500 Global.
- Congratulations to the Inflow team!
