Steve Rendle, VF Chairman, President and CEO said of the appointment: \"Nicole is the right leader who brings the right capabilities to The North Face\u00a0<\/sup>brand at the right time. Her global industry experience and deep understanding of consumer engagement strategies \u2013 through both physical retail and digital commerce \u2013 make her ideally suited to take the helm of this iconic brand and accelerate growth through even more compelling direct connections with consumers worldwide.<\/p>\n

Otto added: \"Few brands in the world have earned truly iconic status like The North Face\u00a0and I couldn\u2019t be more excited to be joining the brand at this time. I look forward to working closely with The North Face leadership team in addition to VF leadership to drive the next phase of growth for this beloved global brand and all that it represents.\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
