The Core Fashion Kenya recently collaborated with FedEx for the monthly Fashion Roundtable Talks in Nairobi. The Roundtable Talks engaged Kenyan Fashion brands shipping their products across the continent and worldwide.
The monthly Roundtable Talks aims to foster dynamic collaborations and secure the right support to advance the fashion industry. FedEx came on board as the logistics partner to ensure products are efficiently delivered to their customers in Africa and globally.
According to Core Fashion Kenya, African luxury brands are still emerging on the global stage with a current penetration of less than 1%, compared to established European and American brands. This presents a promising landscape for the Luxury Goods market, with substantial revenue potential and growth opportunities. The Core Fashion Kenya is bringing together Fashion designers, and key industry players in Kenya to ensure the brands position themselves well in the exclusive luxury brand space.
Linda Murithi Founder, of The Core Fashion Kenya and The Round Table said, “In our ongoing mission to revolutionize the fashion business, we are thrilled to highlight the pivotal role played by our esteemed logistic partners. FedEx has been instrumental in ensuring that our operations run smoothly and efficiently, underscoring the importance of having robust logistical support as we push the boundaries of the fashion industry. Our collaboration with Skyward Express, our trusted local airline partner, has been crucial as we expand fashion tourism to various exciting destinations, thereby promoting Kenya’s rich fashion landscape on a global stage.”
“We are also excited to announce our partnership with New Faces New Voices. They are dedicated to bridging the funding gap for women-owned businesses across Africa and advocating for essential policy and legislative changes. This alignment is a testament to our shared vision of empowering women and driving positive change within the industry,” she concluded.
