Retail property trade body Revo has announced Philip Bier has been elected to become president for 2022.
He will first spend a stint as junior vice president before stepping up to the hot seat.
Bier is responsible for bringing Copenhagen’s Flying Tiger over to the UK in 2006, and now the company has 44 stores and employs 700 staff.
Bier sold his 50% stake in the business in 2017 and is now an investor, retailer, adviser and non-executive director for both commercial and charitable organisations.
JLL’s Tim Vallance will be president in 2021.
Ed Cooke, chief executive at Revo, said: “Philip has a proven record as a successful and disruptive retailer, who will perfectly complement the retail property development, investment and advisory skills on the board.
“With the arrival of Vivienne King, incoming CEO, in the spring, and given her mixed use and housing background, we have a fresh, dynamic and well-balanced board in place to take Revo into the next phase of its evolution.”
