In almost thirty-four years after opening the doors to its first store, the Inditex Group has grown to be one of the largest fashion distributors in the world. Today the group operates more than four thousand retail stores in seventy-three different countries and under eight different brand concepts. Inditex's Zara brand division is renown for its high degree of vertical integration that allows it to maintain a tight control over the different stages of its supply chain and endows it with the flexibility to quickly react to current fashion trends. With a yearly average of 173 new store openings, Zara's accelerated growth rate has forced it to seek innovation and continuous improvement in its operations in order to maintain the competitive advantages that characterize it. One of its biggest challenges deals with the management of its clearance sales where the remaining inventory at the end of its sales campaign must be sold at a discounted price. These clearance sales are fast-paced and pricing decisions must be made for more than 11,000 different fashion designs that Zara introduces each year, and considering the different market conditions that exist in the more than 70 countries where Zara operates. The proposed project consists in the development of a pricing mathematical model based on a sales forecasting model that estimates consumer's reactions to price discounts and a linear optimization model that makes profit-maximizing optimal price assignments. The current thesis details the design, implementation, and live test of the proposed model based pricing methodology that resulted in an approximate increase of six percent to Zara's clearance sales profits.

Abstract:
Zara is one of the most successful and fastest growing retail apparel company in the world. This retail chain is regarded as a pioneer of fast fashion companies whose main feature is quick response to new fashion trends, launching several collections a year and continuous assortment refreshing. Zara has entered the Czech Republic in 2001. On the local market the company presents itself as a premium brand whereas in Western Europe Zara is seen as a middle class brand. The company Zara Česká republika operates only six stores and its sales, compared with the largest clothing chains operating on the Czech market, are rather low. The diploma thesis has two main objectives. One goal is to describe and analyse the business model of the retail chain Zara as many experts believe that the company's business model is the reason of its tremendous success. The second major goal of this thesis is to determine how Czech women perceive the retail chain Zara in comparison with other apparel chains operating on the Czech market and to verify the hypothesis that the Czech female consumers are not satisfied with quality-price ratio of goods offered by chain Zara. The secondary objective of the thesis is to characterize the apparel business and to explain the concept of fast fashion.

Abstract:
Zara Larsson and the male haters. A critical discourse analysis of the medias depiction of the singer Zara Larsson’s commentary on Bråvallafestivalen 2015 Zara Larsson, born in 1997, is a famous, young swedish singer. Besides her career in music she is also famous for her feminist thoughts in social media. In 2015, she critizised the swedish festival Bråvallafestivalen for its lack of female artists. This critizism was first published in the swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter and afterwards there was a huge reaction in social media where lots of people critizised and threatened Zara Larsson because of her thougths. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore how swedish newspapers reports about this situation and how Zara Larsson is portrayed, from a genderperspective. We are using a thematic analysis and a critical discourse analysis as a method. The analysis is based on articles and opinion journalism in swedish newspapers from all over the country. Theories we have used for the study is gendersystems and ideology. The main conclusion of this study is that the debate ended up to be very polarized, and that the supporting side of Zara Larsson dominated the debate, while the opposition tended to be some sort of hopeless contenders. We could also se that the main ideology was feminism, both visible and hidden in the texts. Keywords: Critical discourse analysis, Thematic analysis, gender, Zara Larsson, Bråvalla festival.

Abstract:
Sustainability is a topic paying a visit to most industries today and the fashion business is no exception.The development of eco-efficient stores is one of the efforts carried out by Inditex Group with the aim to adopt sustainability into its practices. Such stores distinguish themselves for saving electricity, water and by greatly reducing the amount of CO2 that is yearly produced. The concept was initiated with the Zara brand but it will be introduced to the other six brands that integrate Inditex as well. However, despite the reduction in the carbon footprint it cannot be denied that the fast fashion business model creates a paradox in terms of sustainability.The following is a case study on the Zara Rome eco-efficient store. Being a store benchmark in Europe, it explores how the sustainability concept is communicated through this model and if the identified paradox is addressed. To do so, the study analyzes the external, internal and interactive marketing of the eco-shop based on the service marketing triangle theory and the Mehrabian-Russell stimulus-response model used in visual merchandising. Participant observation on site and a content analysis of relevant documents were carried out as research methods in order to find the messages emitted on each side of the triangle.The analysis shows that the paradox in the Zara eco-shops is not being handled at the customer level, though it is being handled at internal and external levels. As a conclusion, the eco-shops effort is part of a sustainability strategy with long term perspective and it will be addressed at customer level when the company as a whole counts with a more sustainable brand identity. Additionally suggestions are offered to potentialize the communication of sustainability in an eco-shop.

The problem of optimally purchasing new products is common to many companies and industries. This thesis describes how this challenge was addressed at Zara, a leading retailer in the "fast fashion" industry. This thesis discusses the development of a methodology to optimize the purchasing process for seasonal, short life-cycle articles. The methodology includes a process to develop a point forecast of demand of new articles, the top-down forecast at the color and size level and an optimization module to produce recommendations to define the optimal quantity to purchase and the optimal origin to source from. This thesis is the first phase of a two phases purchasing optimization process. The focus of this thesis is: a) the outline of an enhanced purchasing methodology b) the development of the most important input in the system: a point forecast of demand at the article, color, and size level, and c) the development of an IT prototype to automatically manage the purchasing methodology. The second phase of the purchasing optimization process focuses on the optimization module. The optimization module is beyond the reach of this thesis.

Abstract:

I dagens konsumtionssamhälle blir det allt viktigare att positionera sig rätt i kundens medvetande för att uppnå den önskade imagen. Nuförtiden räcker det inte längre att erbjuda funktionella värden utan även de emotionella har fått en betydande roll för kundens uppfattning av företaget. Många företag slåss om samma kunder och positionerar sig därefter vilket ofta medför att de har liknande marknadspositioner och att deras varumärken uppfattas på samma sätt.

Svenska H&M och spanska Zara är de två största klädkedjorna på den europeiska marknaden och i media skrivs det sällan om den ena utan att referera till den andra. Bilden som ges är att Zara är Spaniens svar på H&M. De anses vara stora konkurrenter med en liknande image och affärsidé. Zara öppnade sin första butik i Stockholm i september 2003 och är således fortfarande relativt nya på den svenska marknaden. Då de har planer på att under 2005 öppna ytterligare butiker i Stockholm vill vi se hur kunderna uppfattar varumärkena och huruvida deras bild överensstämmer med hur företagen positionerar sig. Således valde vi att utifrån en kvantitativ fallstudie på H&M och Zara undersöka de av kunderna upplevda varumärkena genom frågeställningen: Upplever H&M:s och Zara:s kunder att företagen innehar liknande marknadsposition? Vi har studerat de båda företagen utifrån den information vi fått från dem samt medias bild, som vi fann mycket intressant. Därefter gjorde vi en enkätundersökning vars resultat vi kopplande samman med de valda teorierna om varumärken och positionering.

Utifrån analysen har vi dragit slutsatsen att H&M och Zara inte innehar samma marknadsposition i Sverige då större delen av de svarande inte uppfattar dem vara konkurrenter eller ha en liknande image. Trots detta upplever kunderna att de är lika moderiktiga, stilskapande och spännande. De kunder som inte har vistats mycket i Spanien ansåg dock Zara vara mer exklusivt men H&M ansågs vara avsevärt mer prisvärt. Ur detta drar vi slutsatsen att kunderna anser Zara vara väldigt dyrt och inte alls så prisvärt som de vill förmedla. Detta kan vara ett resultat av att de saknar en tydlig uttalad affärsidé, något som kan leda till en oklar marknadsposition. Det kan även bero på att de är relativt nya på den svenska marknaden och inte använder sig av reklam utan förlitar sig på så kallad word-of.mouth. Vi ser också att svenska mediers bild av två stora konkurrenter inte stämmer med verkligheten men vi anar att denna bild skulle vara mer förenlig med de spanska kundernas då Zara i Spanien verkar vara mindre exklusivt samt har en 31% lägre prisnivå och därmed inte bara konkurrerar med H&M om moderiktighet, kvalitet och stilskapande utan även med priset.

Mestrado em Gestão de Recursos Humanos
Este estudo teve por objetivo recolher as opiniões dos colaboradores sobre o que os motiva e desmotiva, e verificar as estratégias utilizadas pela gestão de recursos humanos para motivar os colaboradores. A pesquisa foi realizada aos colaboradores das três lojas Zara (cadeia de lojas multinacional da área têxtil) situadas no Algarve. Esta é constituída por cerca de 125 colaboradores. Foi realizada uma pesquisa quantitativa e qualitativa que usou, como instrumentos de colecta de dados, o inquérito por questionário e a entrevista. Os resultados recolhidos foram submetidos à análise estatística e interpretados à luz da teoria sobre a motivação. Estes indicam que o que motiva os trabalhadores são principalmente os factores de motivação pessoal, no entanto, e de uma maneira geral, os participantes não estão muito motivados para a actividade desenvolvida. Segundo os trabalhadores, as causas da desmotivação devem-se não só a fatores extrínsecos ao trabalho como o ambiente de trabalho e o salário, mas também a fatores intrínsecos ao trabalho, como o reconhecimento profissional e a natureza da tarefa.
This study has, as a main objective, to collect the opinions of workers about what motivates and demotivates them and to verify the strategies used by human resources management to motivate the workers. The research was conducted on workers of the three Zara shops (multinational textile shops chain), located on Algarve. The research has the collaboration of 125 workers. It was conducted a quantitative and qualitative research that used, as a data collecting device, the inquiry by questionnaire and the interview; the results gathered underwent a statistics analyses and interpreted based on the theory about motivation. The final results indicate that what motivates the workers is mainly the personal motivation factors, but, in general the participants aren?t largely motivated for the developed activity. According to the workers the causes of demotivation are due, not only to factors intrinsic to the job, as the professional recognition and the nature of the task, but also factors extrinsic to the job, as the work environment and the salary.

Zara introduces 10,000 new designs every year and distributes 5.2 million clothing articles per week to a network of over 1925 stores in more than 86 countries. Their high product mix and vast global network makes demand forecasting for Zara a challenging endeavor. This thesis sets out to incorporate the effects from seasonality, product lifecycle, and cannibalization into a long term aggregate demand forecast and a short term SKU replenishment forecast. For seasonality, there are two categories of events that are explored in detail: 1) Macro patterns, which are the year to year sales patterns that remain fairly consistent, such as rising sales in spring; and, 2) Specific Events, which refers to events that have an impact on demand but shift dates from one year to the next, such as Easter or Ramadan. These two factors are used to forecast short and long term aggregated store demand by using regression that leverages historical demand with dummy variables for specific events. Product lifecycle and cannibalization are incorporated in the SKU demand forecast. Products at Zara experience a majority of their sales in the first few weeks in the store. For this reason, when forecasting demand for replenishment purposes, it is of paramount importance to understand: 1) How long the item has been in a store; and, 2) how many new items are being displayed for the first time at the store on the week in question. This thesis details a methodology that successfully uses regression to incorporate both of those components. In addition to detailing the methods for-forecasting demand this thesis also covers: an overview of the current forecasting methodology and the special characteristics of Zara's demand; a results section which detail reductions in forecast error from 21% to 17%. This has the potential to reduce lost sales by 24%; lastly, it details implementation efforts at Zara.

Kamminga, Jorrit, Cristina Durán, and Miguel Ángel Giner Bou. Zahra: A policewoman in Afghanistan. Oxfam, December 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.21201/2020.6959.

Full text
Abstract:
As part of Oxfam’s Strategic Partnership project ‘Towards a Worldwide Influencing Network’, the graphic story Zahra: A policewoman in Afghanistan was developed by Jorrit Kamminga, Cristina Durán and Miguel Ángel Giner Bou. The project is funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands. The graphic story is part of a long-standing Oxfam campaign that supports the inclusion and meaningful participation of women in the Afghan police. The story portrays the struggles of a young woman from a rural village who wants to become a police officer. While a fictional character, Zahra’s story represents the aspirations and dreams of many young Afghan women who are increasingly standing up for their rights and equal opportunities, but who are still facing structural societal and institutional barriers. For young women like Zahra, there are still few role models and male champions to support their cause. Yet, as Oxfam’s project has shown, their number is growing, which contributes to small shifts in behaviour and perceptions, gradually normalizing women’s presence in the police force. If a critical mass of women within the police force can be reached and their participation increasingly becomes meaningful, this can reduce the societal and institutional resistance over time. Oxfam hopes the fictional character of Zahra can contribute to that in terms of awareness raising and the promotion of women’s participation in the police force. The story is also available on the #IMatter website.

Abstract:
The author undertakes a literature review of attitudes to water usage in Jordan. One survey was identified which assessed attitudes towards water conservation, sampling 2000 residents in three regions in Jordan (Irbid, Amman, and Zarqa) in 2017. According to the survey, only 61% of respondents believed there was a water shortage in Jordan. 23% believed the water shortage was due to population pressures. The survey focussed more on water conservation than water use. Most of the respondents felt the government were not doing enough on water shortage issues. They were not asked how they feel about the role of the government versus their individual responsibility. Older respondents perceived the shortages to be more critical. A lack of interest in participating in water saving activities was identified among the youth. Water quality was perceived as poor in the USAID survey and noted in other sources. The survey found that most residents had management strategies in place for the day that the water was delivered. Views about politics of regional cooperation and refugee pressure on water use potentially affect attitudes to water but this was not identified specifically within the scope of this report.
