Vivobarefoot, the British brand of barefoot running and walking shoes controlled by Galahad Clark, has signed new distribution deals in the past few months with Ferrino in Italy, Global Serdis in Spain, Native Sport in South Africa and United Lifestyle in Singapore, starting with the autumn/winter 2012/13 collections. Keen Distribution, the distributor of the line in Austria, has seen its territory extended to Switzerland via a local company called Pro Import. The company's international sales efforts have been pursued since last January by a new global sales director, Dominic Jones, who comes from McKinsey. Meanwhile, Michelle Hinsbeck has replaced Jonathan Pennington in the role of marketing manager.
