Kitchenware retailer Tupperware Brands has named Laurie Ann Goldman as president, CEO, and director on the board.

Goldman succeeds Miguel Fernandez as president and CEO, effective immediately. Fernandez has also stepped down from the board.

Prior to the new appointment, Goldman held CEO positions at Avon North America, Spanx, and OVME Aesthetics.

“Now is the right time to bring in new leadership, and Laurie Ann is exceptionally well-suited to advance our long-term strategy and accelerate growth,” said Susan Cameron, chair of the board of directors at Tupperware.

“Laurie Ann brings the right mix of business and brand experience and has built consumer affinity for some of the world’s most iconic brands.”

In addition, the company has appointed Lori Bush, Paul Keglevic, and William Transier to the board, with Mark Burgess, Meg Crofton, Deborah Ellinger and James Fordyce voluntarily departing.

With the new appointments and exits – including the previously announced departure of Richard Goudis – the board will be reduced to 11 directors, 10 of them independent.
