Retail veteran Patrick Bousquet-Chavanne joins eShopWorld
Former Marks & Spencer Director, Patrick Bousquet-Chavanne, has been appointed President and CEO, Americas, at cross-border e-commerce technology and services company eShopWorld (ESW).
Bousquet-Chavanne was previously CEO at Emaar Malls, owner of The Dubai Mall.
During his time at M&S, he served as Executive Director, Customer, Marketing, helping drive the retailer’s digital transformation strategy.
In his new role, he will have overall responsibility for ESW’s Americas business and growth strategy as well as worldwide marketing.
He will also lead the venture’s new consulting division, The Reach Advisory. Bousquet-Chavanne previously served as a member of ESW’s Retail Advisory Council.
“Brands today have unprecedented access to growth outside their home markets, but many don’t have the digital capabilities and local expertise they need to fully leverage international opportunities,” he says.
“As a member of the ESW Advisory Board, I had the opportunity to get to know this skilled leadership team and help enable brands to quickly and cost-effectively scale their businesses.”
“So, I’m very pleased to join ESW at this moment, when we see such substantial opportunity for further growth in the Americas and other regions, particularly in the fashion, luxury and beauty segments.”
