Management's Message

Commenting on the performance, Mr. Pallak Seth, Vice-Chairman, PDS Multinational Fashions, said,

"From the beginning of 2020, the global retail landscape has seen an unprecedented slowdown in demand and change in industry dynamics due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In these challenging times, our primary focus was towards undertaking all necessary measures to ensure safety of our employees and to honour our commitment to our customers, suppliers and bankers to the best possible extent.

Although we started the fourth quarter on a steady note with healthy performance in the month of January 2020, lockdowns in our key markets of Europe, Asia and the US impacted demand and supply chain operations, which in turn affected our performance in February and March. Despite the challenges, our client base broadly has remained intact. We are actively in discussion with all our customers to continuously assess and be prepared for any change in the situation and are also undertaking necessary steps to ensure sustained supplies to our clients. I am also pleased to share that we have rapidly resumed business and manufacturing operations and all our employees and partners are undertaking all measures to ensure continuity in operations with minimal disruption. While we are, currently, seeing a slowdown in demand across our key international geographies as a result of the macro-situation, in the near-term, we believe there should be a gradual bounce back in demand and consumer sentiment. The end-to-end supply chain system is also expected to stabilize in the near future. We are hopeful that in a normalized operating environment, we should be able to deliver a healthy and sustained performance, going forward."
