the core strength of the retailers is retailing and not designingand manufacturing products. Salil confirms, We want to remainas core retailers. Therefore, 100% of our manufacturing isoutsourced. There are fairly well-established manufacturers who
work with us. We have been working with them for the pastseven to ten years. So is there any opportunity for entrepreneursin tying up with these players for manufacturing these products?He says, We are open to that. The selection of a manufacturer isa stringent process. We have a huge terms and conditions list
that all our vendors have to agree to and employ. For example, weare against child labor. We have a quality assurance team toevaluate them, the environment in which they work, theirfinancial capability, their commitment, their ability, and theirinterest level; there is a huge list.
