Product Development and Production Assistant

We live in an age where we expect the services and products we use to be better than the status quo. They need to multi-task, be data-driven, and work harder. They need to perform. Dagne Dover bags and accessories are made for our on-the-go generation. We solve the worry about finding your keys or wallet, and the panic from a leaky water bottle spilling all over your laptop, papers and phone. We have a growing collection of smartly designed bags, with a variety of functional solutions, including a laptop sleeve, iPad sleeve, water bottle holder, keystrap, ID/metrocard holder and more.
