JoJo Maman Bebe, the independent multi-channel brand servicing the needs of new parents has announced the appointment of Gwynn Milligan as commercial director.
Founder and CEO Laura Tennison said “I launched JoJo 24 years ago as a sole trader from my flat share in London, keeping our first stock in my parent’s shed in Wales. Since then we have grown organically into a global business designing and retailing everything you need from pregnancy to pre-school.”
The company now has over 80 stores across the UK, a large Distribution Centre in Newport and a Design and Marketing Office in Battersea, together employing 800 staff. In addition, JoJo runs a wholly owned US trade and B2C business with a base in Edison, New Jersey.
Gwynn joins the business at a pivotal stage to help ease the pathway from small to large company. Her many years’ experience of successfully running the commercial departments of larger companies will be added to this hugely successful brand’s predominantly home-grown board of directors.
