The Problem
Lack of unified online presence within the Garment Industry:
At present the underground garment industry is not plugged into the world-wide-web. “Underground” meaning the indie-brands, sewers, pattern-makers, cutters, illustrators, designers, manufacturers, vendors and suppliers who are behind the scenes, on the factory floor, and in the garment district streets. These people are unseen, unheard, and consequently underserviced.
Most factories and suppliers do not have websites. If they do, their website does not come up in any local search engines for lack of decent SEO work. Finding manufacturers and suppliers is extremely tedious, time consuming and difficult, even for seasoned fashion industry veterans.
The Solution
District2.Co (pronounced district2ptco)- A Virtual Garment District:
An online community designed to globally unify a trillion dollar per year industry. Members will be able to partake in and co-create an extensive search directory technically developed specifically for the garment industry. Unlike the current available fashion sites or search engines that provide an immeasurable amount of information from a retail and brand perspective, District2.co is specifically designed to service the underground apparel industry.
