Education (Knowledge Builds Success)

In today’s office environment, there is often no office, just a laptop on a tabletop and a Pumpkin Spiced Latte cooling beside the keyboard. The work of commercializing apparel takes place in well-lit coffee shops downtown, dim and musty basements downstairs, and seat 9b on a flight from Seattle to New York somewhere over Minnesota. The change of work location is constant and so is the composition of your team.

That is why EarthFirst Consultants specializes in educating your team for success. All team members are brought on board with specific skillsets. Not all know how they fit within the big picture of commercialization. We offer education and training for teams with both apparel and non-apparel, fashion and non-fashion, backgrounds. We teach evaluating and diversifying your sourcing matrix. We teach mill and factory selection and utilization. We teach color standards, color viewing, color vision testing, and light box utilization.

We teach the process of garment construction and the protocols for successful fit sessions. We teach the standards for garment testing, factory visits, and auditing. We teach costing and negotiating with both factories and agents.

We set-up protocols and train your employees to follow the successful path of creating and delivering apparel from concept to customer. Need a team summit to get everyone on board and headed in the right direction? We create, lead, and evaluate your team every step of the way.

Need to get new suppliers off on the right foot with your corporate standards and expectations for apparel development and manufacturing? We create and open pathways to communicate your specific business culture. Because, in the end, knowledge builds success.
