Just one month after shuffling its management team, Procter & Gamble Co. has announced further changes to take place within the ranks.
Patrice Louvet, currently the president of Global Prestige, has been appointed president of Global Male Grooming. Taking up her current position will be Joanne Crewes, currently the vice president of Global SKII and Female Beauty for Australasian, ASEAN, India, Japan and Korea.
The changes will be effective as of July 1, the same date Dimitri Panayotopoulos assumes his new role as the head of Beauty and Grooming, to replace Ed Shirley.
Louvet replaces Chip Bergh, who plans to retire from P&G on September 1, after 18 years in the hopes of landing a CEO post, according to the company.
We have the right team in place to continue growing P&G’s Beauty & Grooming business,” stated P&G chairman, president and CEO Bob McDonald. In fact, this new team, incumbent and new leaders alike, has nearly 300 years of collective beauty industry experience. I am confident we have the right experienced hands on this business and will continue to strengthen P&G’s global leadership in the beauty industry.”
