- Advertisement - The COVID pandemic brought with it a variety of unforeseen consequences, not the least of which was a business building boom. In 2021, there were 5.4 million new business applications, on top of a record 4.4 million in 2020. Many of these businesses were already in the pipeline, and were only accelerated by the pandemic, while others were the result of potential entrepreneurs receiving stimulus money. and the continued emergence of easy-to-use, digital-first, direct-to-consumer commerce platforms. Retail e-commerce businesses were among the top businesses started during this time, and data shows that half of new business owners started with less than $10,000 and 80% used their own money. . - Advertisement - - Advertisement - These new businesses were not without their challenges, and they are particularly affected by the inflationary price environment. There are many factors that drive costs up, but there are two important contributors to many small businesses: labor costs and energy prices. In the last one year, energy prices have gone up by 35% with petrol prices increasing by almost 49%. At the same time, the labor market has also tightened. A dwindling labor force with 4.7 million fewer workers – mostly older workers and women – has reduced the ratio of open jobs to about 2 to 1 for the unemployed. For small businesses, these rising costs can eat into margins dramatically, and many do not have enough reserves to weather this inflationary period. However, there are steps they can take to deal with these challenges and experience success. - Advertisement - supply chain disruption Another significant challenge facing small business is supply chain disruption. By the end of 2021, 61% of small businesses said their supply chains had been disrupted by the pandemic with 63% saying they had to replace their supply chains in the past six months. As a result, nearly half of these business owners said these disruptions made it difficult to meet demand. There are two main reasons behind this: increase in consumer spending and shortage of workers, especially in transportation and logistics. These two factors combined to create significant delays in the entire supply chain – with small business retail 78% of small retail business owners surveyed said the pandemic disrupted their supply chain and 61 % said these disruptions made it difficult. To meet the demand of customers. Unlike large corporations, which may have multiple supply streams and departments to source new material, small businesses often struggle to find a new supplier or do not have the right resources to continually source new products and materials. . This has created an opportunity for companies like Threadsy, a new online wholesale retailer for blank apparel that is providing a vital link in the supply chain by offering in-depth inventory and product availability to meet growing consumer demand. Is. meet demand on time In an environment where costs are rising, it can be difficult for small businesses to invest in and carry inventory, as small businesses often do not have the capital or want to risk an inventory product that moves quickly. Not there. Companies like Threadsy.com are providing periodic inventory management capabilities to small businesses. For the small business, this means product is readily available in multiple colors and styles at favorable price points without the need to purchase the product in bulk and inventory unused. For small businesses looking to control costs, this provides a tremendous value and gives small business owners additional flexibility in how they deploy their capital. Product replacement management All these headwinds are prompting small businesses to reevaluate their supply chains. Everything from shifting the product mix to less disruptive products is being considered and acted upon. And for many small businesses, this is no easy task. In addition to cost and lead times, there are questions about product quality, consistency, and options. Changes in quality and function can negatively affect a brand and require more marketing and sales spending for the effort. Threadsy.com has stepped into this gap, providing a wide range of products in an easy to navigate manner, empowering business owners to make the right decisions for their business in terms of quality and cost. Market trends for small businesses As a company that works closely with small businesses and individual creators, Threadsy.com has seen how the supply chain has affected small businesses. Before the supply chain challenges, manufacturers were able to focus more on the creative side of the business, as bottlenecks and pricing challenges were not such significant issues. Now the trend is to focus as much on the ‘business’ side of the business as it is on the creative side. It’s not always as fun as coming up with a design, but creating a spreadsheet that tracks expenses, shipping costs, and lead times can provide much needed stability until the supply chain begins to repair itself. Is gonna. Big Retailers Filling the Gap Supply chain issues are affecting all businesses, but not all businesses are affected equally. Large retailers are certainly facing some headwinds in price and supply, but for micro-commerce brands with less than $1 million in sales, these headwinds can mean between keeping the lights on or closing the doors. difference may occur. This is where large retailers can redefine themselves as a supplier within the chain. For example, Threadsy.com can provide these small brands with a range of services to meet their needs while maintaining flexibility: Affordable shipping to reduce inflation and supply chain costs Quick and easy fulfillment to reduce lead times As opposed to ordering in bulk Inventory required to size supplies right Competitive prices to keep end user costs down Determination With so much on the line for these retailers, it’s even more important for them to address their supply chain and pricing. This may include sourcing from a different supplier, looking at a different mix of products, or finding their right inventory mix to reduce overhead costs. Companies like Threadsy are addressing these pressures by either becoming the supplier of choice or as an alternative when the supply chain is squeezed. However it has happened, successful small businesses are looking for partners and options to tackle a supply chain that is taking longer than expected after the pandemic. have you read?
