Christoph Barchewitz and Patrick Schmidt, Co-Chief Executive Officers, said: “It is still very early days for fashion ecommerce in our markets. We are building the #1 fashion and lifestyle destination in Asia Pacific, Latin America and CIS. Going public secures us funding to invest into our platform and infrastructure and in turn, benefit from the tremendous growth opportunities in our markets. As part of becoming a public company, we are also excited to welcome a new Supervisory Board, whose combined wealth of experience in fashion, e-commerce and growth markets will support us on our journey as the leading fashion & lifestyle destination in growth markets.”

The new Supervisory Board, appointed on 31st May 2019, comprises a global and diverse set of individuals with a balanced mix of experience in fashion, e-commerce and growth markets. It consists of Cynthia Gordon (Chair), Georgi Ganev, Alexis Babeau and Victor Herrero, as well as two new Board members, Carol Shen and Laura Weil.

Carol brings a deep understanding of the fashion and beauty industry to GFG from previous experience including her roles as Managing Director of the Estee Lauder Companies affiliate in China and President of Gucci China.

GFG’s net cash of €178 million (as of end of Q1 2019), together with the gross proceeds of €198 million from the IPO (assuming exercise of the greenshoe option in full), make GFG well-funded to invest in its growth strategy, further strengthen the end-to-end customer proposition, and continue its path to profitability.
