Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper analyses the performance levels of the leading companies in the fast fashion sector, Inditex, H&M and Gap in the period 2005–2019. Additionally, the isolated analysis of Inditex, as a case study, has been considered, with special emphasis on its internationalization process, in the period 1995–2019. The use of different approaches to obtain efficiency and productivity (DEA, intertemporal and Windows models), have enriched this work. The results obtained indicate a good performance in the resource management of the companies analyzed. In the case of Inditex, a curvilinear U-shaped relationship was found between efficiency and its level of internationalization. In addition, average increases in TFP are observed in the case of Gap and Inditex. However, Inditex shows a trend of continuous improvement in most of the sub-periods considered, reaching an improvement of 18%.

快时尚行业的生产率、效率及其解释因素分析:来自国际环境的新证据

本文分析了2005-2019年快时尚行业领军企业Inditex、H&M和Gap的业绩水平。此外，还考虑了Inditex作为案例研究的孤立分析，特别强调了其1995-2019年期间的国际化进程。使用不同的方法来获得效率和生产力(DEA、跨期模型和Windows模型)丰富了这项工作。结果表明，所分析的企业在资源管理方面表现良好。以Inditex为例，效率与其国际化水平呈曲线u型关系。此外，在Gap和Inditex的情况下，TFP平均增加。然而，Inditex在考虑的大多数子阶段都呈现出持续改善的趋势，改善幅度达到18%。
