� Within direct sourcing, the order process for fall/winter collection starts in November of the prior year and then follows a structured<br />
process with delivery of merchandise at PoS in June/July<br />
� Indirect sourcing achieves shorter order process cycles as sourcing activities will be done by the importer and the majority of goods are<br />
delivered from nearer sources (e.g. Europe)<br />
� In the course of expanding its direct sourcing activities, management plans to maintain a strategic residual amount of indirect sourcing<br />
to cover the customer demand for NOS, flash and repeat items<br />
