Textile B2B is nowadays more a global business than it used to be. One also have to take into consideration that when the textiles are applied in fashion collection changes can occur about a dozen times per year, having an effect on the catalog and inventory of the textile wholesaler. And yes, more and more is automated through UN/EDIFACT.
