Jeremy Lott talks about his experience growing up in a family-owned business since birth. SanMar, the largest supplier of apparel to the imprinted sportswear and promotional products market, was started by his dad back in 1971. Jeremy, now President, always wanted to work in the business, but wanted to prove himself successful first. He did just that through his career in investment banking and by receiving his MBA before returning to Seattle. In this episode, Jeremy discusses the benefit of working with a family business consultant, SanMar’s supply chain and business operations all around the world, their values, and how they’re thinking about sustainability and the environment. It’s obvious Jeremy knows his business inside and out, and the way he deeply cares about his customers, employees, community and family is incredibly moving.
