Irvine, CA, March 16, 2021 – swatchbook, inc. today announced that it has officially partnered with Masterkey, a leading technology company providing software solutions and digital transformation services to the textile, apparel and fashion industry, located in Istanbul, Turkey.
The collaboration between swatchbook and Masterkey started back in October of 2020 with Masterkey becoming a swatchbook reseller. With the introduction of “Virtual Fabric Lab”, a newly formed division as part of Masterkey with focus on fabric and material digitization, Masterkey has now become an official partner in swatchbook’s ecosystem.
Virtual Fabric Lab will serve as an official service center for swatchbook, inc, further expanding the company’s digital service capabilities to serve both brands and suppliers around the globe in the most efficient way possible.
“Virtual Fabric Lab is a natural extension of our digital offerings. And swatchbook is exactly the platform brands and suppliers both need to connect”, said Kerem Kadirglu, General Manger of Masterkey. “We are now able to offer tools and services from beginning to end, allowing us to help our customers to complete their digital transformation. We are excited to be part of this journey.”
The pandemic has forced many companies to rethink how to do business with their supply chain moving forward. While Masterkey has been offering digital solutions for fashion brands for several years, the addition of swatchbook to their product portfolio as well as the establishment of their material virtualization center Virtual Fabric Lab allows the company to help brands to fully digitize their supply chain by also bringing suppliers into process, independent of their location.
Equipped with the latest hardware and software tools from VIZOO GmbH for material scanning, as well as Fabric Kit from CLO to capture the physical characteristics of a material, Masterkey is ready for material virtualization today.
“Masterkey is the perfect partner for us”, said Yazan Malkosh, founder and CEO of swatchbook. “Combining their expertise in digital fashion tools, their client base, industry connections, and location make them a vital hub for swatchbook as we are expending our global presence.
