Operations Intern (Order Team): Learn how to run the supply-chain logistics for a million-dollar company
Fresh Prints is a NYC-based custom apparel company. We find incredible students and give them the working capital, training, and support to build the business at their schools.
The Order Team handles the most crucial part of the business and is directly responsible for delivering the end product to our customers. We worked on 30,000+ orders last year with a direct impact of over $31 million in revenue.
How do you coordinate the logistics of a million-dollar campaign involving multiple overseas and domestic vendors? How can we reduce our costs and increase our profit margins for a given order? How can you deliver an order in 5 days which has a standard turnaround time of 10 days?
