Craghoppers has hired Claire Wilson as retail marketing manager, starting in July. She worked for Reebok in the past. The English brand appointed James McNamara to the newly created position of global commercial director last October. He had previously held a similar position at Salomon. In May, Craghoppers started selling its products in Austria through a sales agent, Thomas Hautz, who has a showroom in the BrandBox in Salzburg. Craghoppers continues to grow very fast. Its sales in Europe jumped by 45 percent in 2016, and another double-digit increase is expected for 2017.
