PVH Corp. announced on Monday the appointment of H&M Group-veteran David Savman as executive vice president and chief supply chain officer. 

In this role, he will be responsible for the global supply chain and sourcing strategy for PVH’s global brands, including Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein. Savman will replace Sarah Clarke, who is leaving PVH as of October 31, 2022 to pursue other interests.

“David is a world-class supply chain executive who has deep experience and expertise in our sector, gained through many years of leadership in critical areas where we see opportunity,” said CEO Stefan Larsson, whom Savman will report to.

“With his proven ability to simplify complexity, strong ability to create value through a demand and data driven value chain, deep experience in international markets and commitment to sustainability, he will play an important role driving our PVH+ plan forward.”

Most recently, at H&M Group, as head of global supply chain, Savman led all sourcing, procurement and warehouse operations and managed an organization across over 80 countries. During his 19 years with the company, he also managed key functions including supply chain, production and purchasing, and worked in several international markets across Asia and Europe.

“PVH has incredibly powerful and compelling global brands and a clear strategy in place,” said Savman. 

“I am excited to be joining at this pivotal time for the company, and will be focused on pursing opportunities to add significant value and make lasting, positive contributions to deliver on the PVH+ plan. I look forward to supporting Stefan and the entire PVH team to deliver sustainable long-term growth.”
