Nike promotes for leading apparel role

23/06/2014
Nike has appointed Reenie Benziger as vice-president of its apparel business, responsible for the production of all Nike apparel globally.

She moves from her role as general manager of Global Young Athletes, where she led the rapid growth of that category.

“Reenie’s deep consumer knowledge and experience in the global apparel industry will continue to position Nike as an innovative brand with consumers,” said Jeanne Jackson, president of product and merchandising.

Carl Grebert, a 17-year Nike veteran, replaces Ms Benziger as VP/GM of Global Young Athletes. Mr Grebert will be responsible for driving growth and consumer connections across Nike's young athlete business. He most recently served as VP/GM of Nike Japan.
