Akriti Sharma
@akritisharma
I build profitable fashion ranges through buying, sourcing, assortment planning, and vendor negotiation.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently on the Buying Team at Max Fashion, Landmark Group, where I build seasonal range architecture across categories and align assortments with sales trends and consumer demand.
I use UDA and sales analysis to inform buying decisions, plan assortments across style count, price architecture, and inventory depth, and negotiate pricing, terms, and order quantities with vendors. I also manage order closure and delivery follow-up to support on-time stock availability throughout the season.
Previously at Faballey, I owned seasonal design-collection costing, placed fabric orders, prepared bills of materials, and managed approvals from lab dips through top-of-production samples. At Groyyo, I selected vendors from buyer tech packs and handled costing and negotiations between buyers and vendors.
My foundation in fashion technology from NIFT Patna includes garment construction, costing, sourcing, product development, and textile and garment production. During my Myntra graduation project, I improved print quality while reducing inventory and cost by replacing screen printing with direct-to-garment printing.
