Detailed SWOT Analysis of Inditex
Strength
1. Global footprint of Inditex in the fashion industry: Inditex is the parent for eight well-known brands including Zara, Pull&Bear, Massimo Dutti, Bershka, Stradivarius, Oysho, Zara Home and Uterqüe. It has been the biggest fashion retailer of the world in terms of revenue. With around 7,469 stores in 96 markets, 1,985 suppliers and 8,155 factories worldwide in 2019, Inditex is one of the world’s largest retailers in the fashion industry. The company has a strong workforce of 176,000 employees from 172 different nationalities and highly diverse cultures, religions, ethnicities and tastes. Amancio Ortega, the owner of Inditex, was the third richest man in the world in 2017 but has now slipped to number eleven in 2020 because of heavy losses suffered due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
2. Diverse range of product portfolio: Each one of Inditex’s brands targets different age groups and offers products starting from apparel, footwear, sportswear, small appliances and kitchenware, to high-quality accessories and leatherwear. While Pull&Bear is primarily intended for casualwear of young customers, Oysho specialises in lingerie, beachwear, home wear and Sportswear. The company Zara Gap, that sells Inditex’s footwear through the eight brands has become an example of how to replenish stores almost instantly and beat competitors to trends. Zara, the most famous and profitable brand of Inditex offers fashionable clothing for kids, teenagers and adults along with footwear and handbags. Inditex’s another brand, Zara Home is a bit different from others since its offerings focus more on home décor products such as bedding, tableware, bed and bath linen, along with dishware, glassware, cutlery etc. Apart from these, Zara Home also sells apparel and accessories associated with the comfort and intimacy of home life, although its prime offerings are home décor products.
