Paul Buxbaum Named Hampshire CEO

Hampshire Group has named Paul Buxbaum CEO after Heath Golden resigned as president, CEO and board member.

"Heath Golden has overseen Hampshire through a difficult period in its history and led a transformation of our business, resulting in a company with prospects of growth and profitability," said Peter Woodward, chairman. "On a personal level, we wish him the best."

Buxbaum, 57, joined Hampshire in 2011 after being the CEO of Haggar Clothing Co. He is also the principal at the Buxbaum Group, a turnaround consultancy and one of the largest liquidators and appraisers of retail and wholesale inventories in North America.
