About agents involved in the sale of textiles, clothing, fur, footwear and leather goods

NACE code 46.16 covers the activities of agents involved in the sale of textiles, clothing, fur, footwear, and leather goods. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader textile and apparel supply chain, acting as an intermediary between manufacturers and retailers. Agents in this sector leverage their industry expertise and extensive networks to facilitate the efficient distribution of these essential consumer goods across domestic and international markets.

Production process

Agents in this industry do not directly manufacture the products they sell. Instead, they utilize their market knowledge and sales skills to connect textile, clothing, and leather goods producers with wholesale buyers and retailers. Key activities include identifying potential customers, negotiating contracts, arranging logistics, and providing after-sales support to ensure smooth transactions.

Production inputs

The primary inputs required for this industry are a deep understanding of the textile and apparel markets, strong relationships with both suppliers and buyers, and effective sales and negotiation capabilities. Agents may also rely on various information and communication technologies to streamline their operations and stay informed of market trends.

Production outputs

The main outputs of this industry are the successful facilitation of sales transactions between manufacturers and retailers of textiles, clothing, fur, footwear, and leather goods. The products sold by these agents are then consumed by a wide range of other NACE codes, including 47.71 Retail sale of clothing in specialised stores, 47.72 Retail sale of footwear and leather goods in specialised stores, and 95.23 Repair of footwear and leather goods.
