We bring over 25 years' experience in the business of Fashion to ensure you remain focused on the Design of your collection and we can help you on the rest.

As operations improvement specialists, we ensure your Team and projects perform better. Clients see us a Growth and Sales Accelerator.

Your Fashion Business Mentor will bring real value added across all the fashion stakeholders.

Do you agree that nobody knows it all?
As the world becomes more complex and ever changing at a pace never known before, it is becoming extremely challenging for a CEO, a Designer and senior executives to embrace the new world.

Building a Fashion Brand successfully requires a vision, general management expertise, leadership skills as well as sales, marketing, financial, human resource, wholesale, retail, international, production, buying, supply chain ...expertise together with an understanding of key markets like the USA, Europe, India, Asia, Japan...

At GFM, we act as mentor to provide expert advice from strategy to execution. We work with the Designer, CEO and the Management Team and we train senior executives as well as front line staff.
Are those questions relevant to you.

Your personal Mentor will help you answer all of the questions below:

  • how to set up the business or give it a fresh new start
  • how to set up the strategy and action plan for the next 12 months to 3 years
  • how to write the business plan, be invest ready and get funding
  • how to build export in a specific country (be Brexit proof)
  • how to recruit, train and motivate the best talents for the business
  • how to optimise sales and marketing & be more knowledgeable
  • how to get the most from trade shows, agents, distributors, social media or PR activities
  • how to set up or manage a retail business or e-commerce web site ...,

We also discuss personal skills, fashion management and we join you in execution after sharing advice and case studies.
