VF Corp. announced that Scott A. Roe has been named as the companys vice president-controller and chief accounting officer and a member of its operating committee. As announced on May 29, 2012, Bradley A. Batten, who previously held the role, is retiring after 10 years of service with VF.

Scott has played an important role in the evolution of our finance team; most recently in providing financial oversight of our international business during a period of exceptional growth, said Bob Shearer, VF senior vice president and CFO. His experience will serve our shareholders well as he assumes this important leadership position at VF.
