2217 WORLD is a new brand for Menswear fashion.

We are also working with an overseas design team to build up our online web presence.

We are a very small, startup company looking for really passionate people to work with. But that being said, we are still a part of, and under the umbrella of, International News Inc. and Shah Safari Inc., both well-known apparel manufacturers based out of Seattle and doing business since the 80s. The intern will acquire valuable hands on experience by working one on one within a small team.

I have attached our Brand Book for your reference.
