Every other day, you hear people saying retail is going down due to online sales. But let's be clear—the business itself isn't the problem. It's the brands running them. If stores are shutting shop, it's not just because of online. They've lost their soul—that human connection that made shopping more than just a transaction.

See, good retail isn't just about selling stuff; it's about creating moments of discovery and connection. But walk into many big brand stores today, and you see an industry that's forgotten its purpose.

Where Did That Human Touch Go?

The dealer meet began with a warm welcome by Ms. Muskaan Jain and Mrs. Jyoti Jain, Joint Managing Directors.

We are relieved that President Trump is pausing the onerous reciprocal tariffs on most of our trading partners. Ninety days offers an opportunity to hold serious discussions about trade barriers and craft substantive market opening agreements. Our motto at USFIA is "Fashion Made Possible by Global Trade" and we know that fashion benefits from the opportunity to source across the globe.

However we are concerned about the escalating trade war with China. Ultimately no one wins in a trade war, so we hope that today's dueling tariff increases will lead to a serious negotiation to resolve the long-standing trade issues between the U.S. and China.
