about this team
At lululemon, the Global Trade team enables lululemon’s growth by ensuring our products move seamlessly and compliantly across borders around the world. Global Trade has three key focus areas, and its teams are built accordingly: Compliance, Operations and Optimization. Compliance ensures our processes adhere to global and local trade and customs regulations and standards, and our approach to core trade competencies (classification, duties, valuation) is optimized. Operations deliver our day-to-day trade and customs procedures. Optimization is our data analysis and reporting engine, enabling us to monitor our performance and continuously improve.
