Hallenstein Glasson named Mark Goddard as its next chief executive, replacing long-serving Graeme Popplewell who will end 46 years at the company at the end of the year. Goddard's appointment was made at the Auckland-based retailer's annual meeting in Christchurch, where chairman Warren Bell introduced the new CEO, who has 27 years of international retail experience, most recently as president and managing director of Toys 'R Us Japan. He's also held senior roles at Myer Australia, Spotlight Group Australia, and Country Road Australia.
