Canada Goose has appointed Paul Cadman as its new president for the Asia-Pacific region.

In his new role, Cadman will oversee the business’ activities including commercial, financial, and marketing across Apac markets, including Greater China, Japan, South Korea, Australia, and New Zealand.

“Paul is a trusted brand advisor, having consulted for us for years,” said Dani Reiss, president, and CEO of Canada Goose. “His extensive knowledge in the luxury sector and his deep experience in developing brands across the region has provided our team with a valuable perspective.”

Cadman has more than 30 years of strategic luxury goods experience and held leadership positions with global brands, including Salvatore Ferragamo, Asprey & Garrard, Bvlgari, and Estee Lauder.

“Paul’s experience, entrepreneurial nature, and regionally-specific industry knowledge make him the best fit for the role as we strengthen our brand presence and further execute against our long-term growth strategy,” said Reiss.

Cadman also founded PMC Global Hong Kong, a strategic management and business consultancy focused on the luxury goods industry.
