Richard Price

Richard Price hit the headlines in November after he was named the new managing director of clothing and home at Marks & Spencer. He is set to take up the role in 2020, leaving Tesco clothing brand F&F after more than four years.

Price continues to drive strong performance at F&F. Sales grew by 3% year on year in the 12 months to 23 February 2019.

He launched F&F on Next’s branded website Next Label for spring 19 in February. This compensated for the closure of the Tesco Direct website, which sold the brand, in July last year.

This year, F&F increased its sustainability focus to develop ethical supplier relationships and support community products in the countries it sources from.
