About Cider
Cider is a direct-to-consumer e-commerce brand in the fast-fashion sector, which leverages a "pre-order" or "on-demand" manufacturing model. This approach allows the company to gauge customer interest and demand before mass production, thereby reducing inventory waste and aligning with a more sustainable approach to fashion. The company primarily engages with its customer base through social media platforms, particularly TikTok, where it showcases themed styles and new collections to a large following.
