Apparel maker Perry Ellis International Inc has named Carmine Petruzello as president of its Perry Ellis division, responsible for men's wear sales, merchandising, operations, and developing the brand's global distribution strategy.
Reporting to Oscar Feldenkreis, vice-chairman, president, and COO, Petruzello will be based out of the company's New York City office.
