Garrard appointed a new chief executive officer, hiring Joanne Milner
from British luxury brand Debrett’s.
Milner was CEO at Debrett's since
July 2012 and led a regeneration of the company, including a global expansion
that including a first overseas office in China, according to a Garrard
statement. Milner previously worked in private equity.
“Garrard is a unique brand,
having designed for royal families for centuries,” Milner said. “There are not
many companies who can point to the fact that its archive is showcased at the
Tower of London. Nor are there many brands who, after 280 years, remain as
relevant and contemporary as Garrard does. And while Garrard is a powerful
international brand, our presence in the UK is very important for us, and I
shall be directing a lot of my energy towards the domestic market.”
