Alfred Dunhill appoints new CEO

Alfred Dunhill, the Compagnie Financière Richemont-owned luxury men's wear and leather

goods label, has announced the appointment of Eraldo Poletto as CEO.

Poletto replaces Christopher Colfer, who earlier this month announced that he would be stepping down as CEO of Alfred Dunhill after seven years to take up a group role at Richemont.

Effective from November 5, Poletto will report directly to Marty Wikstrom, CEO of Richemont Fashion and Accessories.

Joining from Furla, where he also served as CEO, Poletto has also previous held a number of roles at Retail Brand Alliance, including president of strategic development and international business and global chief merchandising officer at Brooks Brothers International.
