SuperGroup’s Hans Schmitt to step down
Superdry owner SuperGroup has announced that Hans Schmitt, its managing director for international and wholesale, will leave the business at the end of the year to become executive vice president for global sales at the Diesel fashion brand.
He will be succeeded by Flemming Jensen who joined the business last month and has assumed responsibility for global wholesale.
Jensen previously held a variety of sales and operational roles at Nike and, most recently, was the global head of sales and operations at Triumph International.
SuperGroup chief executive Euan Sutherland said: “Flemming joins the business with significant international wholesale credentials and his experience operating in international markets will greatly benefit the company.
Never Miss a Retail Update!“On behalf of the board I would like to take this opportunity to thank Hans for his work in driving forward the group’s international strategy and wish him well in his role at Diesel.”
