In the whirlwind of preparations to move and live in Hong Kong, we haven't really explained the job that is taking us there. So, Dave has provided an overview...
My position in Hong Kong is called Asia Procurement Manager - Tigerprint. I've got a team of around 30 people that work in Hallmark's Hong Kong and Shenzhen, China buying offices. We are responsible for buying a wide range of products for one of Hallmark's International businesses in the UK called Tigerprint. Tigerprint products include greeting cards, gift wrap, Christmas decorations, gifts, stationary, and even toys and games.The UK Tigerprint group sells these Hallmark products exclusively to a major UK retailer named Marks and Spencer (M&S). Here's some info about M&S from their internet site:
"We are one of the UK’s leading retailers, with over 21 million people visiting our stores each week. We offer stylish, high quality, great value clothing and home products, as well as outstanding quality foods, responsibly sourced from around 2,000 suppliers globally. We employ over 75,000 people in the UK and abroad, and have over 600 UK stores, plus an expanding international business."
