RAPAPORT... Chow Tai Fook and Swarovski have led a consortium of
investors in a digital jewelry program that claims to reduce sourcing time by
up to 80%.
Atelier Technology — which launched in January — aims
to connect the supply chain and eliminate unnecessary administration, thereby
bringing more products to market at a faster rate, it said Tuesday. Five jewelers
have made an undisclosed investment in the company, with three of them
remaining anonymous.
The technology centralizes a company’s suppliers, enabling them to manage relationships with a larger number of entities throughout the supply chain without needing to use multiple computer applications such as e-mail and Excel, it added.
“The entire industry will agree that today we need to bring many
more styles to market than yesterday, just to reach the same turnover,” said Atelier
founder and CEO Dominic Hill. “Everybody is doing more work and earning less
profit. We built Atelier as a solution to this problem.”
