The internship that I am currently working at for my Summer 2018 Internship class is The H Group. It is a private manufacturing company that specializes in men’s clothing and sporting goods. Its location is in Midtown Manhattan (462 7th Ave, to be precise), right nearby the Macy’s flagship store in Herald Square, and is also a 10 minute walk from Times Square. The size of the company is roughly 15 to 20 people, myself included.

The H Group have been in the business for over 20 years, and their privately-owned brands include Lotto, REPAIR, and RPX Activewear. According to the company’s Facebook page, their clothing has been worn by famous tennis players such as Kevin Anderson (video source for Kevin Anderson). According to the company’s website, they also state the following:

Since its founding, The H Group has developed and manufactured apparel for a wide network of distribution channels. It applies only the highest social and technical standards to each garment that it produces.

With the support of its partners, whose unparalleled knowledge of fashion and quality helps uphold its aesthetic, [they] work all over the world to build brands and acquire licenses specializing in men’s apparel.

The H Group maintains a strong private label business as well. Comprised of families born into the garment industry locally and internationally, The H Group is committed to both building new brands and adding value to existing ones.

Central to its corporate philosophy is a commitment to maintaining and continuously improving strict quality standards, while offering fashionable products combined with excellent value. The H Group manufactures high quality active wear, formal wear and casual wear for men.

Aside from putting out sports clothing, they own another privately-owned brand that specializes in electric-powered bikes, called Go PowerBike. This leads up to my area in which I work at: I work in the Graphic Design department, developing an advertising campaign for the Go PowerBike brand.
