Capri Holdings, parent company of Michael Kors, has named Joshua Schulman, former Coach CEO and President, as CEO of Michael Kors effective September 2022, reports Reuters. He has also been appointed as the head of the brand, effective immediately, reporting to outgoing Capri CEO John Idol.

“Schulman has a strong track record of driving Coach’s turnaround, and we believe the MK brand and CPRI are poised to benefit from his leadership,” Cowen analyst Oliver Chen said.

Schulman is widely credited for leading the turnaround of the Coach brand, which he led from 2017 to 2020. Idol will transition to executive chairman of Capri next fall.

Windsor Jewelers: Building for Tomorrow with Wilkerson

After 43 years in the jewelry industry, Windsor Jewelers' President Rob Simon knows the value of trusted partnerships. When planning a store expansion in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, he turned to Wilkerson to transform existing inventory into construction capital. "There have been very few companies I've dealt with that I totally trust," Simon shares. "Wilkerson understands their success is 100% based on your success." The partnership enabled Windsor to fund new showcases and construction while maintaining their position as their community's premier jeweler. For Simon, the choice was clear: "Over the years, I've been abused in every direction there is by different people in this industry, so I know what to avoid. One company not to avoid is Wilkerson."
