66% employee growth in 12 months
Otta's take
Xav Kearney
CTO of Otta
CreateME is looking to reinvent apparel manufacturing. The company offers a platform that integrates design, procurement, and fabrication, hoping to revolutionize on-demand manufacturing in a way that will cut costs, reduce waste, and help brands turn around new designs in weeks.
The on-demand manufacturing process is likely to prove an attractive way of both streamlining operations, and helping brands answer to increasing calls for sustainable practices in fashion. Excess inventory is a multi-billion dollar problem for larger fashion brands, and for smaller companies it can prove devastating to their bottom line.
The company has grown to be a world leader in customization and on-demand apparel technology. Its technology is used by 50+ world-class clients (such as Nike, Louis Vuitton, Levi's, Jimmy Choo, and more), creating over 5M products added to online carts per year. Adding to its current customization solutions, the company is set to add automated embellishment and sewless apparel to its product offerings between late 2023-2024.
