YPO Appoints Philippe Galland as Brand Manager
In this newly created role, Philippe will lead YPO’s brand management efforts, collaborating with the wider organisation to enhance creative brand strategies and elevate the YPO product range, recognised by its purple and yellow packaging.
Born in the picturesque south of France at the foothills of Mont Ventoux, Philippe relocated to the UK in the mid-1990s to join Proctor & Gamble. There he played a pivotal role in the resurgence and expansion of Old Spice in Eastern Europe.
