“I look forward to working with them closely on its expansion plans – particularly in its digital business, as it furthers its international footprint and in support of category expansion through acquisition and organic growth.”
The move follows the announcement of increased annual sales and profits for the Manchester based retailer and a move to a new state-of-the-art headquarters and distribution centre at Trafford Park.
Vadera added: “With our proven strategy and clear momentum, we know The Fragrance Shop can develop into a world-leading multichannel retailer. “We’re looking forward to the counsel and experience Peter will bring as we expand and grow.”
