I just read this:
The main trading group that was created is MatchesFashion:
This would be an opportunity for a co-operative version, owned by the fashion brands themselves.
Yes, it’s the “Buyer’s Club” business model of co-op, rather than the Solidarity model of co-op, but it’s a way of paying for the set-up costs, that could then be used to percolate the solidarity co-op model down to the people doing the sewing…
This would also tie in nicely to the Ethical Fashion niche which is very profitable.
