VFC » Topics » Fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of raw materials could increase costs and cause service delays.These excerpts taken from the VFC 10-K filed Mar 3, 2009. Fluctuations
in the price, availability and quality of raw materials could
increase costs and cause service delays.
Fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of fabrics
or other raw materials used by VF in its manufactured apparel
could have a material adverse effect on VF’s cost of sales
or its ability to meet its customers’ demands. The prices
for such fabrics depend on demand and market prices for the raw
materials used to produce them, particularly cotton. The price
and availability of such raw materials may fluctuate
significantly, depending on many factors, including crop yields
and weather patterns. In the future, VF may not be able to pass
all or a portion of such higher raw materials prices on to its
customers.
