3. Effective management of cash determines success in business. Given the
unpredictable nature of trade in the textile industry.
There will be instances when working capital or money gets stuck in the
business, jeopardizing profitability and growth plans.
Stakeholders of the natural fibres supply chain like weavers, fabric
manufacturers, and retailers operate their businesses on stringent budgets.
Whenever a gap arises between the point at which a sale happens and the time
payment is received from the debtor, it negatively impacts their business.
As there is limited scope and time to approach banks to raise loans, there is nil
cash flow. So, how can this problem be tackled?

5. WORKING CAPITAL CYCLE OF WEAVERS,
FABRIC MANUFACTURERS & RETAILERS
WEAVERS
They have a 60-day working capital cycle, this sector is classified as a cottage
industry credit is scarce and limited to a select few. Although weavers can get up to
30 days of credit from reelers, they are forced to pay faster in order to access
quality yarn. The majority of the fabric crafted by weavers is purchased by
corporate or fabric houses with a credit period of 45 – 60 days.

7. FABRIC MANUFACTURERS
They sell their finished fabrics for cash, extended payment terms are available
on a case-by-case basis, these payment terms are only valid for 45 days.
However the cycle of fabric conversion to garments and credit to customers
exceeds 90 days affecting the fabric manufacturers’ credit cycle, Credit
availability in this segment is moderate.
8. RETAILERS
They are at the tail end of the supply chain, serving end users, inventory is the
most expensive cost for a retailer. Given the variety of materials to be
maintained and inventory replenishment cycles, an average retailer with a
single-store operation will have an inventory holding period of 90 days, while
a multi-store operation will have an inventory holding period of 120 days.
This, combined with a supplier’s credit availability of 60 days, results in a 60-
day working capital gap.
