Will serve as senior vp of visual and store planning
Saks Inc. (New York) has named Harry Cunningham senior vp, visual and store planning at Saks Fifth Avenue.
Cunningham, who most recently served as vp of creative at OFF 5TH, will continue to oversee store planning for the discount division as well. He will report directly to Ron Frasch, president and chief merchandising officer for Saks Fifth Avenue.
In 1999, Cunningham started his career at Saks Inc. in the department store group and went on to hold several positions. After a short time at Liz Claiborne, he returned to Saks to its OFF 5TH division where he aided in the creation and execution of the "luxury in a loft" store format.
“As we continue to share talent between the different divisions, I'm excited about the experience that Harry brings with him,” says Frasch.
The specialty retailer operates 49 full-line stores in 23 states, 5 licensed stores in the Middle East and 1 licensed store in Mexico City, and 55 Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH stores.
