Unlike other industries, the global chain of production for clothing companies has to remain flexible because they have to keep reinventing themselves to keep up with the latest fashion trends. The more open world trading system enables The Gap to choose different factories where products are made according to the new demands of its fashion conscious customers. This means that while some factories gain new business, others may lose out. Therefore changes in our taste in clothes can indirectly threaten the jobs of poorer people in other countries.
