Corinne Sundermeier replaces Till Nöthel as head of the Venice Beach division of Hucke AG, the German apparel group. During the last six months of 2005, sales of Venice Beach products declined to €6.8 million, or €1.4 million below the score of the year-ago period, reportedly due to reduced sales by mail order catalog to the fitness studios and reduced shelf space in key accounts.
