Aubade has a new Commercial Wholesale Director. Vincent Raoul, ex-Piquadro and CWF, takes on the position for France and International. He took on the direction of wholsale sales in March, following the departure of predecessor, Olivier de Croizant, for the general management of Barbara.

Now officially appointed Wholsale Commercial Director, Vincent Raoul has more than ten years of experience in the world of children's wear, at CWF, as Asia and Middle East Export Manager, then with accessories in Milan at Piquadro, the Italian leader in high-end leather goods. He started his career with management and strategy consulting at Oliver Wyman.

A graduate of the EDHEC, the London School of Economics and INSEAD, Raoul should be able to bring the bar back up for Aubade's wholesale segment, which still represents 60% of the Calida group's brand's sales but they did drop 12% in the first quarter of 2014.
