ShipmentMerchandising DepartmentWhat is merchandising

merchandising is the process of creating merchandise based on a particular market demand.

Merchandising department is the central co-ordinating point between all department.

The merchandisers are involved from the origin of the garment to its shipment.

Roles of merchandiser- Buyer contact and communication.- Product development- Costing and pricing- Selling and booking of order- Production follow up- Quality control- Shipping and documentationObjects of merchandiser Right Quantity : To dispatch right quantity of product what buyer ordered.Right Quality : It should be with right quality as accepted both parties. Right Cost : Everybody wants more from what they are paid.Right Time : No one wants to wait.

ABOUT ORDERFor merchandisers OC (order confirmation) is the first step for production process. Then they are going for costing based on Tech pack. After this cost will be confirmed by buyer. Then they are proceeding for sampling. Simultaneously they order the fabric & trims in bulk form.Then the merchandisers works on TIME & ACTION CALENDER. By this they get all the information about ordered trims &fabrics. So that they can easily track order.They are giving indent to CAD to know about consumption. After this release of BOM will take place. Then trims & fabrics are in housed.Min while ARO or L/C request will be given to accounts. And also fabric checking ,GPT testing is done.Then the fabric is issued to cutting department then it will be issued to stitching & finishing ,for packing and then finally bulk shipment is done

Sampling-Sample is an example of required product. A sample represents the manufactures mistakes , this stage may lead to cancellation of order booked.

-The buyer wants to know whether the company is capable of producing the garment with a desired style, once the design is received sampling should be done. Buyer may ask many changes throughout the process.-Samples that are made in production stage are as followsProto type sample Fit sample Salesman sample. size set samples Pre-production sample.

In garment and textile testing, GPT stands for Garment Package Test and FPT stands for Fabric Package Test.

Each buyer set guidelines for what all tests are mandatory at fabric stage and subsequent in garment stage. Buyers send this package tests list to their nominated testing labs. Prior to bulk production buyers asked for FPT and GPT test report from their vendors for production approval. Garment manufacturer then sends sample (fabric or garment) to the testing labs for FPT and GPT. Once garment manufacturer mentioned for FPT or GPT, testing lab perform all test according to the buyer test manual. In this package test garment manufacturer do not need to specify any test to the testing lab. Pricing of FPT and GPT is done based on the tests to be performed as per buyer requirement.
