Hello!
Almost five weeks of my internship have past,
and since last time I have experienced a lot of things. Firstly, I have worked
with the garment technicians where I mostly helped them to take measurements on
samples and evaluate fitting on dummies. I also attended preproduction meetings,
as the technicians and merchandisers have together with the quality controllers
before production starts, to learn how such a meeting could be. Secondly, I
have been introduced to the sustainability department where sustainability
developers mainly work with code of conduct. The sustainability developers
visit suppliers and factories located all over China, to regularly conduct inspections
and follow up inspections regarding code of conduct. For instance, they control
and make sure that safety, working conditions, etc. are in compliance with laws
as well as with KappAhl’s requirements. One day we visited a factory to make a
follow up inspection on the last inspection conducted a few months earlier. The
whole visit was very interesting, and it was cool to see a Chinese textile
industry irl! Finally, I also got invited to the office’s yearly outing. This
time, it was a trip to Siming mountains, approx. 4 hours bus ride from
Shanghai. The first day we had some outdoor activities for team building, and the
second day we hiked in a valley. The hiking included an adventure trek with
steep ladders, narrow rope bridges and zip-lines over a river, among other
things. This was all for today's blog post 😙😙😙
