THIERRY GUIBERT
CEO
“The Crocodile is free-spirited, persistently inventing and reinventing. You need freedom to be creative.”

For Thierry Guibert, life is a large playing field of freedom, action and matches. Free-spirited Thierry quickly inspired by its values before passionately plying his craft at a series of companies.
In 2008, he became FNAC CEO before taking up the same position at Conforama.
In 2015, he was appointed CEO of Lacoste and MF Brands Group. Since then, Thierry has steadfastly upheld the values of the Lacoste brand: audacity to constantly conquer new heights; tenacity to commit teams to a shared project; and confidence and transparency to foster boldness and creativity in each and every one of us with the spirit and standards that have forever embodied Lacoste.

“What does the Crocodile mean? Finding the perfect balance between performance and fair play. It’s our team spirit, which is the legacy of René Lacoste and the Four Musketeers.”

One brand, one team, one voice: Philippe Pastor is a seasoned team player. He began his career as a product manager at Reckitt & Colman before becoming a consultant and manager for PricewaterhouseCoopers in New York. He then joined Kering (PPR at the time) in 2000. Based in Los Angeles, Philippe oversaw the development of Mobile Planet Inc., prior to managing Fnac Éveil et Jeux in 2005. In 2012, he moved to Vivarte group, becoming CEO of its Footwear department.

Building on his experience, Philippe made the Lacoste rankings in 2016. He was handpicked for a new role to transform the Group into a lifestyle brand by growing its “shoes” and “leather goods” segments.
