Karlijn Oortman

Responsible for the follow up of the designers, implying: sending out the sketches to the suppliers with all its details, check fabric quality, lab dip approvals, sampling development, measuring samples and technical fitting, price negotiations, order administration, etcetera. All within a realistic planning so all deliveries will be in time. Being very critical I always make, together with the designer, the best of each style. I’m responsible for different product groups during my time at Expresso; knit, jeans, PU and jersey.

Contact person with suppliers and offices, negotiating about the buying price and delivery date, administration of the orders, analyzing best and low sellers and quality control.

Assist the Quality Control department. This by measuring up the sizes, compare the colors with lab dips and make sure the law has been followed, especially on children clothes.
