Our Story
Design Matrix opened in 2009 with a single merchandiser and one woven programme. What has not changed since is the operating principle: the buyer should never have to chase us for a status, and the factory should never be asked to absorb a cost we did not agree.
Today we run development, compliance and shipment for brands across Europe, North America and the Gulf — working exclusively with audited manufacturing partners so our clients get full visibility from yarn to hanger.
