07/20: Sean John Outsources Overseas Manufacturer Contracting
James Covert of the New York Post reports that Sean John has "struck a deal to outsource the contracting of overseas manufacturers for its merchandise." The deal will apparently lead to as many as 10 of Sean John's 100 or greater full-time New York staff heading over to
LF USA, which is a unit of trading company
Li & Fung Group.
The post story also quotes a Sean John spokesperson, who made clear that design, promotion and production were not being outsourced and that the outsourcing deal with allow the clothing and lifestyle brand to cater more to its strengths under CEO Dawn Robertson, who will have been with the company
two years on August 1.
