STATE OF THE ART MANUFACTUR ING FAC IL I TY: NICARAGUA

Due to increasing demand of our manufacturing services, we expanded our production capacity in Central America by building new production facilities in free zone Nicaragua. This has proven to be very

rewarding for many of our private label clients, who prefer easier communication access at affordable

price and premium quality.

Thanks to our integrated systems, production and assembly has become more efficient in terms of time and accuracy. Once designs and technical flats are approved by our clients and design team, patterns are sent to the plotters located in Nicaragua and remotely manipulated into the output required for production. Markers are printed in Nicaragua and are ready for production lines within 2 hours. Its that fast.

Free Zone Nicaragua has become a key player in our success. Our Nicaragua plant has allowed Front Row to become even more competitive, Nicaragua is strategically located close to the Us and the Caribbean, shortening considerable delivery times and communication gaps. Also, the Cafta, TPL agreements with the US has enable us to obtain competitive costs.

Front Row’s objective is to stay close to its clients and provide quality service by offering a production structure that meets their needs and is at all times accessible.

A strong corporate identity helps reinforce a company’s brand image and supports its marketing activities. When a corporate identity program is presented consistently, it creates a positive and lasting impression of the company. In today’s competitive marketplace, it’s imperative to establish corporate identity standards. They ensure that everyone within your company, from individual employees to branch offices, is representing the company the same way each and every time they interact with customers and prospects.

The way your team is presented says much about your determination as a company, commitment and tone in which you want to communicate with your customers. At Front Row Uniforms, our corporate wear division, we strive to create uniforms and suits that are consistent with our clients’ brand mission and identity, and that leave a distinctive and positive mark on their customer’s perception of the brand.

- WOMEN’S SUITS THROUGH TIME - A brief summery of the history of women’s suiting.

• The first women's suits, which consisted of a tailored coat or jacket and matching skirt appeared in 1660s.

• Suits for women became a lot more common during the 19th century when women began to wear them for day to day activities.

• In the first half of the 20th century, the skirted suit became the common daytime city costume for women, in the workplace and out; dressmaker suits featured softer fabrics and "feminine" details..

• The early 20th century, witnessed a radical change in both fashion and attitudes in wider society, with women making a stand for their rights and liberation. Coco Chanel was the prominent designer of this period, creating much more comfortable clothing with simpler lines which prompted the ‘flat chested’ look, short skirts, and hair into a bob style. Women began wearing the clothes that reflected their new lifestyles and privileges, including having the right to vote and engaging in paid work outside the home.

• By the late 20th century it was common to see women in both skirt and trouser suits, with trousers being seen as more casual and skirts as more formal.

• The 60s revolution and liberation gave way to a new found femininity and empowerment of women in the workplace. Suits and dresses enhanced the waist and cleavage, celebrating women.

• In the 80s, women were more confident of their position in the work force, none the less, their suits imitated those of men. Oversized and intensified by shoulder pads, blazers and pants hid women’s forms, and presented a masculine silhouette.

• The suit has come a long way since the 1660’s and today’s suit designs are endless. Different colors with various mix-and-match garments, like shorts, flares, big shoulders, high waists; the list goes on. The one thing that all these suits have in common, however, are that theypossess the ability to make you feel powerful, look smart and create a good first impression.
