Jean-Christopher Garbino will be the new chief executive of Truworths, South Africa’s leading fashion retailers. It was a positive move to get a new chief executive with international experience, which would give Truworths a global perspective. The 45-year-old Garbino is currently the Chief Executive of Kiabi fashion retail group based in France. Garbino’s European background might be of some concern as the local market was different from the European market in terms of it being a credit-driven market.
