The Normal Brand

Supply Chain

• Vendor strategy — decide who TNB works with, on what terms, and who gets cut when they don't perform
• Factory relationships — own day-to-day and strategic management of all production partners, including performance reviews and corrective action plans
• Vendor compliance manual — build TNB's compliance framework with outside counsel: quality standards, chargebacks, lead times, and capacity commitments — the foundation everything else is built on
• Quick-turn program — build TNB's chase capability from scratch: fabric pre-buys, capacity reservations, tiered commitments, and nearshore/fast-turn partnerships
• Country-of-origin & tariff strategy — evaluate sourcing by country and factory network, optimize duty exposure, diversify vendor concentration
• S&OP — partner with merchandising, planning, and finance to align supply with demand signals and launch timelines
• Logistics & distribution — coordinate inbound logistics from landed goods through warehouse to the right channel on time
• Metrics — own on-time delivery, lead time, inventory turn, and landed cost. Report directly to Founder and drive continuous improvement
• Travel — 10–20% including international factory visits. Being in the room is part of the job
