Why consumers are paying more for lower-quality goods
Manage episode 522125156 series 3607789
The apparel retail industry has experienced its share of ups and downs this year. A focus by the Trump administration on tariffs has raised supply chain costs for most apparel manufacturers. In turn, those manufacturers have passed on price increases to shoppers. Consumers have responded by delaying purchases for deals or forgoing them altogether. The more positive end of the spectrum remains the high-end luxury space. The sector is selling higher-priced goods to consumers, allowing them to sit on another year of wealth gains through the stock market. Still, not everyone is winning. Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi talks on the Opening Bid Unfiltered podcast with Mackage CEO Tanya Golesic. Mackage was founded in Montreal, Canada, in 1999 by Eran Elfassy. Today, the luxury brand is led by former executives from Jimmy Choo and Ralph Lauren, including Tanya Golesic. Golesic has expanded distribution while staying true to the brand’s luxury athletic DNA. She shares what has defined the brand’s year, her career, and what’s on tap for 2026.
