Fashion Spotlight: Galvin Green
I
n 1990 entrepreneur and Galvin Green founder Tomas Nilsson had a vision to
design stylish and high performing golf apparel that was simply the best on the
market. Now, more than 20 years later, Galvin Green has expanded from its
headquarters in Växjö, Sweden to become the top global golf partner of GORE-TEX
® and break through to the U.S. market. Recently we sat down with Andrew Creed,
President of Galvin Green U.S., to learn more about what makes Galvin Green products
a necessity for every golfer.
Q: When did you first become involved with Galvin Green?
I joined Galvin Green when the decision was made to launch the product line in the U.S. I
started as National Sales Manager then took over the operations as President in 2015
Q: Why did Galvin Green decide to expand to the U.S. market?
The U.S. golf market is the largest in the world, so it was not a difficult decision. The difficult
part was making sure that we set the business up properly to provide industry leading support
and service to our partners.
