Summary
Lululemon restructured its raw materials team in August, resulting in the layoff of seven employees, a spokesperson told Retail Dive. The change occurred just weeks before new CEO Heidi O’Neill began her tenure and follows broader C-suite reshuffling, including the appointment of Athleta CEO Maggie Gauger as chief product officer. The move is part of an effort to refocus product design and address recent merchandising and materials-related issues such as problems with the Get Low and Breezethrough leggings. The layoffs affected the raw materials department specifically and were presented as part of organizational changes rather than tied to a publicized company-wide reduction.
Lululemon Athletica Inc. cut 7 jobs affecting its raw materials team team.
