· Brussels, Belgium
· Full-time / Freelance About Sustainity For us , Corporate merchandise must be virtuous and premium. Sustainity’s vision is to offer quality products people want(s) to keep and to be fully transparent about what stands behind them, with particular attention to proofs and certifications: which one, what it covers, and who issued it. We built a product range based on those principles. Sustainity is backed by a Belgian family group that has worked in corporate merchandise since 1976. Fifty years of experience in sourcing, supplier relationships and production follow up stand behind every order we take. We are a small, growing team in Brussels, looking for new talents to help us change how this market works.
