fix machine · What we do

A consultancy for fashion brands that want to grow without losing money on the way.

We’ve spent more than ten years doing it from inside large fashion houses, where one mistake costs thousands of garments. Now we bring it to brands like yours: we find where your margin is leaking, fix it with you and leave the process running.

How we work

360°

Eight areas that cover the whole chain, from the supplier to the final customer. Not every brand needs all eight: we start with the one that is costing you the most money.

01 · First meeting

The uncomfortable question.

02 · Second meeting

The answer, in numbers.

0% Margin
03 · Then

The fix and the improvement. Always by your side.
