Gymshark’s CCO to leave the company
Gymshark chief commercial officer Niran Chana has left after eight years at the the sportswear retailer.
Chana, who was responsible for global sales, management of merchandising, planning and marketing started in 2015 holding various positions in the company’s management team overseeing customer experience, wholesale and digital marketing.
In a LinkedIn post, the company said: ” Niran Chana, our chief commercial officer, has decided that the time is right to hang up his lifting belt and pursue different ambitions.
“Niran joined Gymshark over eight years ago as a customer service manager when the company was only a fraction of the size it is now. Looking at the incredible journey we’ve been on since 2012, Niran has played a huge part in the growth, development and culture of the Gymshark brand you see before you today.”
The company added that Chana “leaves an indelible footprint, and his legacy will live on here as we strive to become the most iconic British brand of all time.”
Prior to Gymshark, Chana worked at Sports HQ Group for just under two years.
In October of last year, the direct-to-consumer brand opened its first permanent brick-and-mortar store on London’s Regent Street with an experiential focus.
