Meridian Blue Apparel is a global team of design, development, engineering, sourcing and production experts with one shared purpose: to create products customers love. We believe great apparel should combine exciting design, reliable performance, lasting comfort and exceptional value. That belief guides how we work every day, from the first concept and fabric selection through development, production and delivery. You may not know the Meridian Blue name, but you have likely seen or worn products we have helped create. We work behind the scenes with recognized brands and retailers to bring apparel and headwear ideas to life. Our team combines global manufacturing experience with a practical, hands-on approach to quality, service and problem-solving. Today, we are building the next chapter of Meridian Blue by bringing that same expertise to the blanks market. Our goal is to raise the standard for essential products such as T-shirts, hoodies, polos, headwear and outerwear. We are focused on creating better-fitting, better-performing products that decorators, brands and businesses can rely on. We are a growing company, which means our team members have the opportunity to help shape how we operate and where we go next. We value people who take ownership, communicate clearly, solve problems and care about doing good work. If you enjoy building, improving and working with a global team, you may be a great fit for Meridian Blue Apparel.

BSC Webdesign is a young web design agency based in Vienna, Austria. We are a team of three in our twenties, creating modern, individual websites for businesses across different industries. We combine design, development and strategic thinking to build websites that not only look good, but are clear, functional and tailored to each client. We work closely with our clients, think beyond the initial brief and care about the details that make a website feel complete. As our number of projects continues to grow, we are building a small network around our core team. We value long term relationships, reliability, independent thinking and straightforward communication. Our way of working is flexible and largely remote. We travel, work from different places and care much more about great results and a good relationship within the team than about where someone is sitting. We want BSC Webdesign to stay personal as we grow. That means working with people we trust, giving them responsibility over time and creating an environment where everyone can contribute ideas, improve their skills and enjoy working together.
