Touch to Start
In 2020, amid the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Sri Atiningsih saw an opportunity to help more people who wanted to start a fashion business. She founded Cahaya Semesta Garment, a garment company that not only focuses on producing quality clothing but also offers free business consulting services for the fashion industry. Now, after four years, Cahaya Semesta Garment has become a trusted partner for new fashion entrepreneurs, helping them overcome challenges in building their brand and running their fashion businesses.
Sri Atiningsih has been in the fashion industry for over 15 years. She started her business by opening two garment stores, and throughout her career, she has been involved in every aspect of the fashion business, from design to production. This extensive experience gave her a deep understanding of the challenges faced by fashion entrepreneurs, especially those just starting out.
However, when the pandemic hit in 2020, Sri realized that many people wanted to start their own fashion brands but were hindered by a lack of knowledge about production processes and brand development. This was the reason behind the founding of Cahaya Semesta Garment. She wanted to be a trusted partner for new fashion entrepreneurs, providing them with insights, knowledge, and support to help them start their businesses the right way.
One of the main services offered by Cahaya Semesta Garment is free fashion business consulting. This service is specifically designed to help new fashion entrepreneurs understand the steps they need to take to build their brand, from material selection, design, production, and marketing. With over 15 years of experience in the garment industry, Sri Atiningsih and her team have the knowledge to guide each client in the right direction.
Sri believes that business is not just about profit but also about benefiting others. Therefore, she provides this consulting service in the hope of helping more people succeed. “Many people come with big dreams of having a fashion brand, but they don’t know where to start. We want to help them understand the process and give them the confidence to move forward,” said Sri.
With this fashion business consulting service, Cahaya Semesta Garment has become a trusted partner for many new fashion entrepreneurs, helping them grow their businesses with more certainty. From initial discussions about design concepts to guidance on production, Sri and her team are always ready to offer advice and insights to help clients achieve their dreams.
One example of the success of Cahaya Semesta Garment’s fashion business consulting service is the Azoya brand. Azoya has become one of the biggest clients of Cahaya Semesta Garment, and their journey began with an intensive consultation session with Sri.
Azoya, which initially only had a basic concept and rough design ideas, received direct guidance from Sri to create their first collection. Together with Sri, Azoya’s owner learned how to choose the right materials, design for their target market, and understand the efficient production process. As a result, Azoya has grown rapidly and now orders over 5,000 pieces of clothing per year from Cahaya Semesta Garment.
Azoya’s journey shows how the right business consulting and ongoing guidance can take a brand from its early stages to success. Azoya is now proof that with the right partner, a fashion brand can grow quickly and sustainably.
As a trusted partner for new fashion entrepreneurs, Cahaya Semesta Garment not only offers consulting but also ensures the quality of its products through partnerships with trusted fabric suppliers like Paramatex. Since its establishment, Cahaya Semesta Garment has built a strong partnership with Paramatex, and now nearly 60% of their production uses fabric from Paramatex.
One of the most widely used fabrics is Vita PL, which is ideal for producing activewear. This fabric is known for its excellent quality, supporting comfort, durability, and sweat-wicking properties, making it a popular choice among fashion brands that produce sportswear or casual clothing.
Many of Cahaya Semesta Garment’s clients are already familiar with Paramatex and bring their fabric when they come to begin production. This partnership ensures that every product produced by Cahaya Semesta Garment meets the high-quality standards expected by new fashion entrepreneurs and their clients.
Sri Atiningsih always reminds that good intentions are key in business. “I never expect those who consult with us to always become regular customers. What matters is that we provide the best service because if we do good, the results will also be good,” said Sri.
Indeed, many clients come only for consultations and don’t continue to production. However, Sri continues to serve everyone with all her heart. Often, those who initially only consulted end up deciding to proceed with production, sometimes starting with small quantities and then growing rapidly.
This proves that the good intentions planted from the start can bring extraordinary results. Through sincere fashion business consulting and dedicated service, Cahaya Semesta Garment has become a trusted partner for many new fashion entrepreneurs who want to succeed in this industry.
Cahaya Semesta Garment is now four years old, and during this time, they have remained committed to being a trusted partner for new fashion entrepreneurs. In 2024, the company not only provides fashion business consulting services but also continues to prioritize product quality and excellent customer service.
With over 15 years of experience in the fashion industry, Sri Atiningsih and the Cahaya Semesta Garment team are ready to help you launch your fashion brand from the ground up and grow it into a successful brand. If you are a new fashion entrepreneur who needs guidance in starting your business, Cahaya Semesta Garment is the right place for you to consult and begin your fashion journey.
