The company I am interning for this Fall semester as a design intern is named Sacatelle.

Sacatelle, founded in 2014, is a privately held company with about 50 employees.  The company not only creates designs for a variety of reusable bags for other companies to use as promotional items, giveaways, and gift bags, but they also personally manufacture each bag that has been designed. The company’s clients consist of both high-profile and smaller companies. Industries they have worked with range from retail, entertainment, and finance to name few. Some of their most notable clients are J.P. Morgan, The New York Times,  The New Yorker, Revlon, and Youtube.

The workspace I work in is comprised of employees and other interns working on computers-both personal and company owned- designing an assortment of bags that have included backpacks, tote bags, shopping bags, duffel bags, and dress bags. In addition, whether it’s trying to maintain a current relationship with a client or trying to create a relationship with a new one, Sacatelle’s sales team can almost always be heard speaking on the phone scheduling meetings or discussing sale opportunities at any given hour of the day.
