Business Concept Gloria Jeans is a fashion brand with the 25-year-old history. Gloria Jeans business concept implies that our customers will receive fashion and quality products at affordable prices. Vertical integration of the business is used at all stages of collection development: design, production, logistics and distribution.

We guarantee the best prices because we are: - Developing our own design and merchandising centers and using the global expertise and deep knowledge of design, fashion and textile - Collaborating in one team with the best international specialists who previously worked for globally known European and US companies - Expanding our own production capacities through acquisition of factories and stateof-the-art equipment - Building logistic facilities to accelerate deliveries of new products to our stores - Reducing costs at each stage through continuous optimization of business processes and engagement of consulting companies such as McKinsey, PricewaterhouseCoopers, etc.

Design and Merchandising Gloria Jeans competitive advantages are its vertically integrated brand and proprietary design development. Most companies buy products from vendors that tend to offer the ready-made collections. These companies are particularly Hong Kong, Japanese, US, and French ones. As a vertically integrated brand, Gloria Jeans develops its products itself and manages the far-flung sourcing department worldwide. The Company s own design and merchandising centers are located both in Russia and Sao Paulo, Shanghai, Istanbul, and Hong Kong.

Balance of fashion, quality and best price is a basis of Gloria Jeans strategy. This is the foundation for the creative process of collection development, from creating a concept to fitting a finished garment. Innovations in fashion, art, music, movies as well as fashion shows, exhibitions, creative people all inspire Gloria Jeans designers during their travels around the world with the aim of creating future collections.
