In a pivotal moment for Fusalp, CEO Alexandre Fauvet announces his departure after a decade steering the renowned alpine brand. This announcement comes on the heels of notable achievements, including the grand opening of Fusalp’s flagship on Avenue George V in Paris.
Fauvet’s decision, reported by L’Informé and confirmed by FashionNetwork.com, signifies a significant leadership shift at Fusalp. Appointed managing director in 2014 following its acquisition by Philippe and Sophie Lacoste, Fauvet leaves behind a legacy of remarkable growth, propelling Fusalp’s sales from €6 million in 2014 to an impressive €56 million in the 2022-2023 financial year.
In an official statement, Fusalp notes, «After 10 intense and exciting years at the helm of Fusalp, Alexandre Fauvet, in agreement with Philippe and Sophie Lacoste, has decided to retire from his operational functions.» Despite stepping down, Fauvet remains pivotal to Fusalp’s future, retaining his role as a member of the brand’s strategic committee and as a minority shareholder in the company.
While Fauvet projected exceeding €60 million in sales for the current financial year, his departure precedes the conclusion of this chapter. The search for his successor will be meticulous, with Philippe and Sophie Lacoste serving as interim CEOs to ensure a smooth transition. Mirabaud’s stake acquisition in the company last year adds a new dimension to Fusalp’s trajectory, as the brand sets its sights on achieving €100 million in sales by the end of the 2025-2026 financial year.
As Fusalp navigates this transformative period, the brand remains committed to excellence and sustained growth. Stay tuned for the next phase in Fusalp’s journey, shaped by a legacy of leadership and a vision for the future.
