GSHK is made up of a few major teams: Merchandising, Material, Technology, QA/QC, People & I.T. These teams handle production, product development, quality assurance, material & colour testing and garment fitting.
Even more important than the office space is the culture within, which is one of family, care, support and, of course conditioning. If GSHK sounds like the place for you, you know what to do. Go ahead and hit that apply button now!
