Glaser will assume responsibility for VF’s global supply chain, including all manufacturing and sourcing operations. He joined VF in 2001 as Managing Director, VF Asia Ltd. Sourcing, based in Hong Kong. During his five years there, he was instrumental in further diversifying and expanding VF’s global sourcing network in support of VF’s growing portfolio of brands. In 2006, Glaser was named President, Supply Chain Europe/Asia, based in Lugano, Switzerland. He was named to his current role, Vice President, Global Operations, in 2010, and relocated to VF’s world headquarters in Greensboro, N.C. In his new role, Glaser will join VF’s Operating Committee.
