“I’m very pleased to announce Matt as VF’s next CFO,” said
Rendle. “Matt’s VF career has given him a broad range of experience
in all facets of financial management, and he deeply understands
our company and financial model from his experience working within
our brands, our business units, and across international markets.
Matt is a clear example of VF’s robust succession planning approach
and there’s no one more qualified than him to serve in the CFO
position as we pursue the next phase of the VF growth
strategy.”
Puckett, 47, recently marked his 20th anniversary with VF. He
joined the company in 2001 as a Senior Accountant in the finance
organization. In the following years Puckett held a series of
finance roles with increasing responsibility, including being
appointed in 2009 as CFO of VF’s Sportswear Coalition, which
comprised the Nautica® and Kipling® brands.
Immediately following VF’s 2011 acquisition of the Timberland®
brand, Puckett was appointed CFO of Timberland® and was integral in
helping to guide the brand’s successful integration into VF. In
2015, he was named CFO of VF International, a role that took him to
VF’s European headquarters in Stabio, Switzerland, where he was
responsible for all aspects of financial management for VF’s
business across the EMEA and Asia Pacific regions. Puckett returned
to the U.S. in 2019 and has been serving as VF’s Vice President,
Global Financial Planning & Analysis.
Puckett succeeds Scott Roe who announced his retirement from VF
to pursue other opportunities. Roe spent 25 years with VF, the last
six of which were in the CFO position.
“Scott has had a tremendous career at VF and his impact on our
organization has been significant,” said Rendle. “Scott was
instrumental in helping to build our international platforms during
his time as CFO of VF International. He has overseen a number of
VF’s acquisitions and divestitures and been a significant partner
in helping to actively evolve our brand portfolio throughout his
tenure. And importantly, Scott has enabled VF to consistently
deliver on our commitments to shareholders and stakeholders, even
during challenging times. Scott has worked closely with Matt over
the last several years to ensure a smooth and natural transition.
We will forever be grateful for his dedication and service.”
Roe will remain with VF through the end of May to close out the
company’s fiscal year 2021. Puckett will assume the CFO position
upon Roe’s departure from VF.
