ABOUT CARAA
We are a New York City-based sport bag and accessory company founded in 2015 by CFDA award-winning designer Carmen Chen Wu and Aaron Luo to re-imagine handbags for modern life. With backgrounds in design and global supply chain, Carmen and Aaron merged their respective expertise in form and function to create Car + aa.

ABOUT MERCADO FAMOUS
Created by 2 serial entrepreneurs in digital commerce and the founders of Caraa, Mercado Famous is sharing the best-kept secrets of Spain with the whole world.
Mercado Famous offers the best quality meat from ecological farms that have been using natural ingredients and humane practices on the Iberian Peninsula for decades. With our backgrounds in sourcing and supply chains, we are able to procure Spain’s best pasture-raised charcuterie at prices that make it an everyday luxury.
Launched in 2022, we have been featured by Bon Appetit, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and the Quality Edit within the first 3 months of the launch, featuring our premium quality and unique taste. Our goal is to change the narrative around Spanish charcuterie. Through accessible pricing, we aspire to introduce to the American consumer to a product that has been historically inaccessible for the masses in a modern, non-apologetic and democratic way.
We bring together a multi-talented team that thinks outside the box, and value diversity and inclusion. We welcome driven and smart individuals of all backgrounds and experiences to apply for this position.
