Apparel retailer Phillips-Van Heusen has named Allen Sirkin President and Chief Operating Officer, replacing Emanuel Chirico who was appointed Chief Executive Officer of the company last month.
The company also promoted Kenneth Duane to Vice Chairman, Wholesale Apparel, a new position where he will have responsibility for both the company's Sportswear and Dress Shirt groups. Previously, Sirkin had served as Vice Chairman, Dress Shirts, and Duane was Vice Chairman, Sportswear.
Additionally, the company promoted Michael Shaffer, Executive Vice President, Finance, to Chief Financial Officer.
"We are very fortunate at PVH to have a deep and talented group of executives managing our businesses," said Chirico. "These promotions allow us to take full advantage of these individuals' considerable experience, knowledge and leadership to help further drive our company forward."
Sirkin has been with PVH for over 20 years, having held leadership positions in the company's Dress Shirt, Sportswear, Footwear and Retail divisions. Prior to joining PVH, he had held executive positions with Warnaco, Pony Apparel Active Sportswear, McGregor Sportswear, and Manhattan Industries.
Chirico noted, "In Allen Sirkin, we have not only a long-time and loyal associate, but a strong, experienced industry executive who has been instrumental in making us the world's largest dress shirt company and has taken our Dress Shirt Group to record levels of growth and profitability.”
