The Seattle-area office joins a growing team of over 1,500 employees across the country and a network of Shein locations across the US, including corporate and warehouse facilities in cities such as Los Angeles, San Diego, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., and Whitestown, Indiana.

Shein anticipates the new 10,000-square-foot office space will host over 50 professionals by the close of 2024. The company is actively seeking skilled individuals to fill various roles, particularly those that will support logistics and distribution efforts nationwide.

These new hires are expected to play a pivotal role in Shein’s ongoing expansion strategy and contribute to delivering what it describes as “a seamless shopping experience for American consumers”.

In November last year it was reported Shein was pressing forward with filing for an initial public offering (IPO) in the US, as part of its ambitious plan to extend its global footprint and address concerns over forced labour and climate impact.
