The leather goods specialist Beheim International Brands has appointed Melissa van Duzer as Head of Design.
Van Duzer has already worked on the FW24 collection, Beheim announced on Thursday. She started as a deputy for Anke Fabritius and then took over her position at the beginning of the year. Van Duzer previously worked for brands such as Comma, Derek Lam and Cybex and brings more than ten years of experience in bags, accessories and footwear.
Beheim also has a new area sales manager for the North Rhine-Westphalia area, Katrin Hümmeler. She has 30 years of experience in this area and has worked for the clothing and shoe suppliers Ahlers and Hamm Market Solutions, among others.
“We are very pleased to be strengthening our team and are already enthusiastic about the initiative and market knowledge that Ms. Van Duzer and Ms. Hümmeler bring with them,” said Michael Beheim, Managing Director of Beheim International Brands. “When we handed over the collection, both of them already showed how valuable their input will be for our business development – whether in the ultra-modern, high-quality design of our new bag collections or the intensification and constant optimization of our sales activities and personal customer relationships.”
