Callieri's supply chain role will see him reporting to Levi president and CEO Michelle Gass. He will also become a member of the executive leadership team.

Under this role, Callieri will oversee global supply chain operations for the Levi’s brand, including product development, sourcing, sustainability initiatives, and distribution and logistics.

Gass said: “We’re excited to welcome Chris to LS&Co at this pivotal moment in our evolution into a DTC-first denim lifestyle company. With a proven track record of delivering results at scale, he’s the right leader to strengthen our end-to-end supply chain agility, drive innovation, and advance our sustainability goals — all while delivering exceptional value to our fans worldwide."

Callieri has over two decades of international experience in supply chain management within the retail and consumer goods sectors.

As chief supply chain officer at Victoria's Secret, Callieri managed a global team responsible for product development, sourcing, production, and distribution of apparel, accessories intimates and other categories.

His previous tenure at Tory Burch saw him play a role in implementing new systems such as PLM, Merchandise Planning, and SAP. He also established the company's sustainability team and strategy.

Callieri has held senior positions at Adidas where he managed materials development, product development, sourcing, and logistics for Adidas Lifestyle Brands.

Additionally, Callieri held leadership roles at HRC Advisory and A.T. Kearney, where he spearheaded transformation initiatives and developed strategies to enhance supply chain efficiency and product innovation for retailers.

“I’m thrilled to join LS&Co at such an exciting time for the iconic Levi’s brand, a true category leader that thrives at the centre of culture. I look forward to working with the talented LS&Co team to deliver strong performance, serve our fans around the world, and strengthen Levi’s position as the world’s definitive denim lifestyle brand," Callieri said.

In July this year, Levi Strauss revised its revenue and profit forecasts for FY25 after demonstrating strong Q2 results despite ongoing global trade uncertainties.
