Guido Geilenkirchen, general manager of Saucony for the German-speaking countries and Poland, has been additionally appointed to the job of commercial director for Europe. On top of this, he will directly oversee sales and marketing in the Benelux countries and the U.K. For the German-speaking countries and Poland, he will be assisted as sales manager by André Green, until now sales representative of the running shoe brand in Bavaria. As previously reported, Saucony's parent company, Collective Brands, eliminated a few weeks ago the position of European sales director for Saucony ahead of its sale to Wolverine Worldwide. That position was held by Frank Warnars, based in the Netherlands.
