Teri Lingerie jobs and careers

About Teri Lingerie

Teri Lingerie was founded nearly 50 years ago by a traveling salesman who saw a gap in the market while working in the great city of Chicago. Truly a family business, it was named after one daughter and later run by the other when the founder retired. She led the company for over twenty years. In 2021 - we - Jamie and Kymberlie - took over ownership, proudly continuing the woman-owned tradition. We met when our kids ended up in the same kindergarten class. Through school plays, rainy soccer games, and countless sleepovers, a strong and lasting friendship formed. You know the term “framily”? It’s kind of like that. The kids who brought us together are grown now, and when Teri Lingerie came up for sale as the previous owner prepared to retire, stepping in as co-owners just made sense. The last four and a half years have brought plenty of challenges and change—from a pandemic to a trade war—much of it uncharted territory. Thankfully, we have incredible employees who’ve stayed with us through it all, loyal customers who love the underwear and camisoles we produce, and the best vendors and suppliers we could ask for. Despite significant growth in recent years, we’re still a small business—punching above our weight in the (still) male-dominated mass market of women’s undergarments. We're hands-on in every aspect of the company, from high-level strategy to packing boxes in the warehouse. No job is too big or too small. It’s a labor of love, and every day brings something new.
