GigaCloud’s Board membership remains at five.
Lebensburger brings decades of executive leadership experience as the former President of Ashley Furniture, one of the largest furniture companies in the U.S., where he served for nearly 30 years before retiring in 2023. During his tenure, Lebensburger advanced through senior leadership roles spanning sales, marketing, merchandising, product development, and business growth. He has also served on the boards of the American Home Furnishings Hall of Fame, The Home Furnishings Association, and the Las Vegas Home Furniture Association, and is the recipient of multiple industry honors. Lebensburger earned his undergraduate degree from The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania in 1968 and his MBA from the University of Cincinnati in 1969.
“I am thrilled to join GigaCloud’s board during this dynamic phase of growth. Having witnessed the Company’s incredible growth and its transformative impact on the industry—leveraging technology to delivering greater efficiency and agility across the supply chain,” said Lebensburger. “By redefining how businesses connect and transact, GigaCloud is not only advancing the industry but creating meaningful value for all participants. I look forward to contributing to its continued success.”
“GigaCloud has had a great relationship with Kerry over the years, and we are very excited to welcome his expertise and thought leadership as the newest member of our Board of Directors,” said Larry Wu, Founder, Chief Executive Officer, and Chairman. “His continued insight and broad-based furniture experience will be invaluable as we continue expanding our B2B Marketplace. On behalf of the Board, I also want to thank Lorri for her contributions and wish her the very best.”
Kelley notified the Company of her intention to retire from the Board on August 12, 2025, after two years of service. She will continue to serve as an advisor to support Lebensburger’s transition. Her retirement was not related to any dispute or disagreement with the Company or the Board, or on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.
“I have greatly enjoyed my time at GigaCloud, especially witnessing its significant growth,” said Kelley. “I believe the Company is well positioned to continue this momentum and strengthen its leadership in global B2B technology solutions.”
