Bridging the Gap Between Design and Delivery
Table of Contents
Zyod, an Indian tech startup, is making waves in the global fashion industry by providing a comprehensive platform that streamlines the entire design-to-delivery process. Their innovative approach leverages technology to empower factories and brands alike, fostering efficiency and transparency throughout the supply chain.
Empowering Factories with Intelligent ERP Solutions
Zyod’s core offering is its sophisticated Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software, which acts as the “brain” of manufacturing operations. This intelligent system guides factories on what to produce, how to produce it, and when to produce it, maximizing their capacity utilization and minimizing waste.
According to Zyod co-founder Ankit Jaipuria, over 80,000 small and medium-sized factories in India operate at less than 33% capacity utilization. Zyod’s ERP platform addresses this challenge by providing real-time data and insights to optimize production workflows.
A Global Network of Brands and Factories
Since its inception, Zyod has attracted a diverse clientele ranging from established global brands like Reliance Industries and Aditya Birla in India to international names such as City Research (Japan), Anthropologie (Pennsylvania), NEXT and Boohoo (UK), and VAN-DOS (Spain).
Expanding Reach with Mobile App and New Markets
Zyod’s commitment to innovation is evident in its recent launch of a mobile app available on both iOS and Android platforms. This user-friendly app caters to long-tail clients who prefer purchasing diverse styles on the go, while also enabling businesses to track their orders seamlessly.
Looking ahead, Zyod aims to expand its presence in the Southern Hemisphere, targeting markets like Brazil and Australia. The company also plans to venture into untapped regions such as Africa and Scandinavia, further solidifying its global footprint.
Fueling Growth with Strategic Funding
Zyod’s recent Series A funding round of $18 million, led by RTP World with participation from existing investors Lightspeed and Alteria Capital, along with new investors Stride Ventures, Stride One, and Trifecta Capital, will undoubtedly accelerate its growth trajectory.
This investment will be instrumental in expanding Zyod’s reach into new markets, enhancing its predictive analytics capabilities, automating platform functionalities, and integrating its software with traditional stitching machines to minimize human error.
A Vision for the Future of Fashion Manufacturing
Zyod’s vision is to revolutionize fashion manufacturing by leveraging technology to create a more efficient, sustainable, and transparent industry. Their commitment to innovation, coupled with their strategic partnerships and funding, positions them as a key player in shaping the future of fashion production.
