Brooks Running has promoted Marc Misiewicz to VP, U.S. Wholesale, responsible for leading channel strategy and guiding multi-year growth across the company’s largest commercial business. A 26year Brooks veteran, Misiewicz brings expertise in sales leadership and retailer engagement.  

In his new role, Misiewicz will oversee sales operations, cross-functional initiatives and field support programs while continuing to strengthen partnerships with retailers nationwide. 

Misiewicz was selected as an SGB 40 Under 40 honoree in 2013 when he was a senior key account manager for the brand. 

“Marc’s leadership and strong connection to our retail partners have helped shape Brooks’ wholesale business for multiple decades,” said Mike Billish, who was promoted in March to SVP and GM of the Americas at Brooks Running. “Marc’s promotion — and the broader team evolution — reflect the strength of our sales organization, which works day in and day out to maintain retailer trust through consistent execution and deep, long-standing relationships.” 

Rick Wilhelm, VP of U.S. Specialty Retail Accounts, will continue leading sales for the run specialty channel and wholesale digital markets, spearheading Brooks’ unrivaled connection to run specialty. 

Additional promotions within Brooks’ U.S. Wholesale sales organization include Shawn Kohn to director, Sporting Goods and Micah Tanaka to senior manager, Shoe Chain. 

The company said the moves “sharpen its organizational structure to enable long-term growth, strong retailer partnerships and execution excellence across wholesale channels.”
