Haddad Brands Europe, founded 6 years ago, specializes in the distribution of licensed children's apparel (Nike, Levi’s, Converse, Jordan, Lacoste, Polo Ralph Lauren…) across Europe.

The company has experienced rapid growth since its inception and already has over 500 employees throughout Europe 🌍.

We distribute our products both in wholesale, working with major specialized or multi-brand retailers, and in retail, through our in-store corners in department stores.

In concrete terms, this means that if you buy children’s apparel (ages 0-7 for Nike and 0-16 for Levi’s, Converse, and Jordan), whether it’s in-store, online, in France, Romania, or any other European country, the product in your hands has passed through our hands 😊even if you bought it in a Nike or Levi’s store!

To support our growth, we are offering a permanent position as a Key Account Manager
