Fashion Industry's Most Trusted Business Management Solution

Our Story

Founded in 2005 by industry veterans Kyehan Kim and Indon Chung, N41 emerged from a deep understanding of the unique challenges facing fashion wholesalers. With backgrounds at respected brands like Joie and AG Jeans, our founders recognized that generic business software couldn’t address the specialized needs of apparel companies.

From our headquarters in the heart of Los Angeles’ fashion district, we’ve grown to become the trusted ERP partner for over 150 fashion brands, including industry leaders like XCVI, Lush, and Jovani. Our journey has been defined by a singular focus: developing technology solutions that are as dynamic and adaptable as the fashion industry itself.

Our Mission

At N41, we empower fashion wholesalers to streamline operations, accelerate growth, and deliver exceptional experiences to their customers through integrated technology solutions that are specifically engineered for the apparel industry.

Comprehensive Solutions for Diverse Product Categories

While N41 began in apparel, our expertise now extends across the entire fashion and lifestyle wholesale ecosystem. Our specialized ERP system is tailored to address the unique inventory, sales, and distribution challenges faced by wholesalers and importers across numerous product categories:

Fashion Accessories & Jewelry

Our system handles the complexities of managing extensive SKU counts, multiple style variations, and seasonal collections for businesses specializing in jewelry, handbags, leather goods, watches, eyewear, and other accessories. The integrated style-color matrix simplifies variant management while our specialized reporting tools track performance by collection, material type, and price point.

Beauty & Personal Care

For wholesalers and importers of perfumes, cosmetics, nail products, and hair care, N41 provides essential tools for managing product expiration dates, batch tracking, ingredient listings, and regulatory compliance documentation. Our specialized inventory management features handle the unique challenges of fragrance and cosmetic distribution, including temperature-sensitive storage requirements and specialized shipping needs.

Specialty & Lifestyle Products

Businesses dealing in headwear, gloves, travel goods, hosiery, and neckwear benefit from our flexible categorization system that accommodates diverse product attributes and specialized inventory tracking. Our powerful forecasting tools help manage seasonal demand fluctuations common in these categories, while our EDI integration simplifies department store compliance.

Footwear

Our footwear-specific functionality addresses the unique challenges of shoe wholesalers, with specialized matrix systems for managing size runs, width variations, and material differences, alongside integrated tools for handling pre-orders, allocations, and size-specific demand planning.

Built for Wholesalers & Importers

N41’s system is specifically engineered for the wholesale business model, with features designed to address the unique challenges faced by importers and distributors:

International Supply Chain Management

For importers, our system provides comprehensive tools for managing overseas production timelines, container tracking, landed cost calculations, customs documentation, and compliance requirements—creating full visibility from factory to warehouse.

Multi-Channel Distribution

Our platform enables wholesalers to manage complex distribution strategies across department stores, specialty retailers, online marketplaces, and direct-to-consumer channels, with integrated EDI capabilities that comply with major retailer requirements.

Volume Pricing & Customer-Specific Terms

Our sophisticated pricing engine handles tiered wholesale pricing structures, customer-specific discounts, volume incentives, and promotional pricing with ease, ensuring accurate application of terms across all orders regardless of entry point.

Showroom & Tradeshow Management

For businesses that showcase products in permanent showrooms or at tradeshows, our mobile solutions allow for real-time order capture and inventory visibility, eliminating double-entry and ensuring accurate fulfillment of orders taken in the field.
