Your Questions Answered: What is Target doing in India?

I will try to answer some of the MANY and very good questions that have been asked often.

Q: What is Target doing in India?
There are no Target Stores in India.  (They aren’t any outside of the US.)
At the Target India office, there are about 2000 employees, of which about 17 are from the US. About 2/3rds are IT, writing programs for Target, like their internal help line. The other third includes all of Target’s other operations from marketing, buying staff, stores, distribution, and finance, etc. Target India supports Target in Mpls.

I will write more soon about off-shoring vs. out-sourcing and other hot topics. :)

Q: What will Shae be doing?
Shae will be working with merchandising (his current primary line of work in Mpls), Target.com and sourcing. He will be developing leadership.
