Project 1, entailed making uniforms, track pant and t-shirts, for a government run school, UPS Barola, in Noida, for the middle school children. We made 250 uniform sets in different sizes. The principal of the school felt the need for a uniform for special occasions when children represent the school during inter-school events. The significance and importance of this would be to generate a sense of belonging, pride and loyalty towards the school and encourage the attitude of working in a team and also to give the children a school identity.
Lessons Learnt
This project helped me understand the business of apparel manufacturing, working with different people and understand customer needs. It also helped me assess capital requirements, identifying sources to raise funds and finally deployment of funds for most effective use.
