Message to the Supply Chain Community
It is a tremendous honor to be among 30 leaders once again in the Supply Chain Awards which is one of the most prestigious awards in the Supply Chain world. I’m accepting this precious award on behalf of my teammates who overcame all the challenges and unknown times and transferred to success over the past years.
This award is ultimately a tribute to hard work, team spirit, and devotion. As LC Waikiki, we will continue to add value to the industry with our mission of “Everyone deserves to dress well”.
With this mission that covers social values, we embrace an understanding that covers our entire ecosystem as a whole and happily shares the growth journey of our suppliers.
Supply chain management is a crucial part of business success. Although we have witnessed that companies have been dealing with different crises recently, if there is a problem, there is a solution. In recent years, we have worked hard on digitalization, cost management, sustainability, and human resource development and have seen the results successfully, so I can easily say that; value people. Team and achieving together is everything.
