Crocs, the iconic footwear brand, is pleased to announce the strategic addition of two accomplished leaders to its board of directors, effective January 1. The Broomfield, Colorado-based company is fortifying its board with the diverse expertise of John Replogle and Neeraj Tolmare, signaling a forward-looking approach to guide Crocs into its next chapter.
John Replogle, a seasoned global leader with an impressive track record at major consumer brands, including Seventh Generation, Burt’s Bees, and Unilever’s skin care division, brings his wealth of experience to Crocs. Currently serving on the boards of Grove Collaborative and Wolfspeed, Replogle is also a founding partner of One Better Ventures, a venture capital firm committed to investing in impactful consumer-centric businesses.
Neeraj Tolmare, a technology visionary with over two decades of experience, joins the board as the Global Chief Information Officer for The Coca-Cola Company. Tolmare’s extensive background in leading technology teams and driving digital transformation initiatives positions him as a key contributor to Crocs’ technological advancements.
Andrew Rees, CEO of Crocs, Inc., expressed his enthusiasm, stating, «I am thrilled to be working with these two world-class executives and leaders.» Highlighting Replogle’s commitment to sustainability and Tolmare’s technological prowess, Rees emphasized their potential to drive impactful change and sustainable growth for Crocs.
This strategic move comes on the heels of Crocs Inc.’s robust third-quarter revenues of $1.05 billion, showcasing a 6.2% increase. The growth is attributed to flourishing markets in the Asia Pacific region and double-digit expansion in the Crocs brand.
The combined expertise of Replogle and Tolmare is poised to propel Crocs into an era of innovation and sustainable success.
