Zara's POS and IT upgrade (or not)

  1. 1st Zara store opened in La Coruna in 1975
  2. 1985- Inditex (Industria de Diseno Textil) founded as a parent corporation to Zara
  3. Questions Provided by Ian Graham:  Zara Case
    1. Describe Zara's Business model? What are the strengths
    of this model and how sustainable are these strengths?
    2. At the time of the case how can the opportunities to
    improve Zara's IT capability be assessed? Which changes
    do you you think would have been justified?
    3. Drawing on your knowledge of how technology and
    retailing has evolved in the intervening seven years, how
    do you believe the use of IT in a company like Inditex will
    have evolved?
    Reconvene at 4 pm: groups will be asked to comment briefly
    on these questions.
