e risen from under 5% of all textile production in the early 1960s to over 95% today. Offshore manufacturers make long runs of standard mass-market apparel items. These are then brought to the United States in container ships, requiring significant time between original order and delivery. As a result, retail customers must accurately forecast market demands for imported apparel items. Rather than competing with the offshore manufacturers on price in the textile industry, some U.S companies are:____.
a. providing smaller quantities with much faster delivery.
b. producing much larger batches with a strategy of flooding the market.
c. making large order commitments to control the fashion market.
d. "providing smaller quantities with much faster delivery", "producing much larger batches with a strategy of flooding the market", and "making large order commitments to control the fashion market" are correct.
e. None of these choices is correct.
