I have already completed some of my intern days at the marketing and merchandising dept. As of now, most of the detailed outline for the merchandising dept has already been gone through. In the marketing perspective, the most important aspect is to be very proactive in case of mail communication and on- time sample and price submission. These are the crucial areas where merchandisers need to work and submit competitive and cost-effective prices with customers regarding being in the race of order confirmation. Apart from this, merchandiser will also need to ensure that projected business is aligned with our budgeted business. They also need to review on running business development that they are expecting in near future business. Supply chain plays very important role in price negotiation as well as fulfilling the balance on future supply and demand.
