Problem & Impact Potential
The upcoming ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) regulations represent a transformative challenge for the fashion and textiles sector, which is poised to reshape the industry’s landscape.
The depth of the impact will affect every level of the supply chain, from raw material sourcing to manufacturing, distribution, and retail.
All levels must navigate these changes with significant financial investments, global supply chain adjustments, and a commitment to ethical practices to avoid severe economic and social consequences.
Depth of Impact
​
The new ESG regulations impose strict requirements on environmental sustainability, ethical labour practices, and corporate transparency.
This regulation sets requirements for product durability, reusability, and recyclability. Fashion brands must design products with reduced environmental impact, focusing on increased circularity through repairs and sustainable materials.
​
Non-compliance could result in hefty fines, legal actions, and severe reputational damage.
​
The impact is already beginning to show with investors divesting €70M from H&M and Inditex due to insufficient progress on sustainability.
​
Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)
The UK is exploring EPR schemes for textiles, which would hold producers accountable for the entire lifecycle of their products, including end-of-life management and repairs.​​​​​​​​​ Preparing for these upcoming regulations is no longer optional for brands; it has become a necessity.
​
The Importance of Alterations
​
Without the option for personalised garment adjustments, customers may feel less inclined to make purchases, especially for premium or tailored items. This could result in higher return rates and missed sales opportunities for partners.
Ultimately, the absence of custom alterations could weaken The Village's position as a luxury shopping destination, especially as customer expectations for personalised service continue to rise.
By incorporating a central Repairs, Repurpose and Alterations service into your strategy, you can unlock a range of benefits:
Benefit to Bicester Village:
By offering these value-added services, The Village can differentiate itself from other retail destinations by positioning itself as a comprehensive shopping experience. This initiative will not only strengthen The Village's reputation as a luxury retail hub but also foster long-term partnerships with brands.
The key to increasing village footfall is to avoid offering an app-based service and instead focus on an in-person experience. This approach fosters personal connection and enhances the perception of a premium service, encouraging guests to return to the site to collect their goods—creating opportunities for additional spending during their visit.
​
Benefit to Partners:
Retailers can enhance customer satisfaction by gaining access to the on-site service, offering convenient, high-quality repair and alteration services, which encourage repeat business and build brand loyalty. These added services can help reduce returns and exchanges, repurpose unpopular garment sizes, and ultimately improve overall sales efficiency and the customer experience.​
​
Benefit to Guests:
Providing Repairs, Repurpose & alteration services ensures that guests find the perfect fit, which can increase purchase confidence and reduce the likelihood of returns. Alterations can also give new life to older or unsold inventory, reducing waste and maximising sales opportunities.
