Lectra, a key player in the fashion, automotive and furniture sectors, who has worked in design, pattern making, development and cutting solutions for nearly 50 years, inaugurated its “Training Center” at the Chamber’s facilities National of the Garment Industry (Canaive).
“The objective of these facilities is to bring all those students, entrepreneurs and companies in the fashion sector who seeks training in Kaledo design and pattern software Modaris and AccuMark at affordable prices with flexible hours. Lectra solutions combine software, the hardware, services and data of the fashion industry that are needed to put the right product in the hands of the right person at the right time, “Canaive said in a statement.
These solutions communicate with each other and comprise the entire process (from design to point of sale) to connect all actors in the fashion value chain. It’s a smarter way to work. This means that companies in the sector can innovate faster and reach the market earlier, without losing any trend.
Carlos Sarmiento, commercial director said: “Lectra is one of the main players in the market, since most of the fashion companies (manufacturers, brands and retailers) use Lectra equipment. Our products are present in the most important companies on the five continents. And also in the future it is planned to place centers of the same nature in other Canaive delegations in the country. “
