Petco expands board with three new members
Three high-caliber executives join the board of Petco Health and Wellness Company, Inc. in an effort to accelerate their omnichannel health and wellness ecosystem initiatives.
The first new board member is Sabrina Simmons. She’s the former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Gap Inc. With her 15 years of experience in financial leadership roles, she brings a wealth of financial expertise to the table.
She also serves on the Boards of Directors of Williams-Sonoma Inc., e.l.f. Beauty Inc., and Columbia Sportswear Co.
Mike Mohan is the President and Chief Operating Officer of Best Buy.
His background is in transforming brick and mortar retailers to a thriving omnichannel provider of unique merchandise and services.
Finally, Mary Sullivan, Senior Managing Director & Chief Talent Officer at Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP Investments), is a proven HR leader with extensive experience in industries such as retail and hospitality.
The new directors bring powerful complementary skills that will support Petco’s fully integrated, digital-led pet care ecosystem. They also expand the gender and ethnic diversity of its board and will support Petco in furthering its connections with diverse communities, partners and suppliers.
With the addition of these three new board members, Petco grows its board of directors to a total of 11 members, including four independent directors.
“We are thrilled to welcome Sabrina, Mike and Mary to our Board and the Petco family,” said Ron Coughlin, Chairman and CEO of Petco. “They bring best-in-class experience across retail transformation, finance and human capital management that not only complements our existing board members but will also accelerate execution of our unique position as a true end to end omnichannel health and wellness ecosystem for pets. They also further our goal of having one of the most diverse boards in America.”
