  • In the era of a competitive market, starting a new business might be demanding and challenging. A company can have a low position in an attractive industry and better than a company with the right place in an unattractive industry. Indonesia is the top three countries with a massive expenditure on Muslim apparel. The popularity of Muslim fashion and hijab in Indonesia has shown a significant increase (Global Business Guide Indonesia, 2016). QUIN is a newcomer in fashion industry from Bandung that engaged in the textile trade for the Muslim hijab in Indonesia. QUIN offers a product that elevates religious values combined with an element of beauty. The increasing number of hijab brands, a massive amount of fabric suppliers and vendors is one proof of Bandung as a potential city to start a fashion business.
