- The co-founder and former boss of Superdry, Julian Dunkerton, returned to the board and was appointed interim CEO on Tuesday after winning the backing of shareholders keen for a revival of the British fashion group’s fortunes.

Needing a simple majority of votes cast at general meeting of investors to return as non-executive director, Dunkerton secured 51.15 percent. Dunkerton and Williams said in a statement that they looked forward to “rebuilding the Superdry brand and the business”. The company said Chairman Peter Bamford and Chief Financial Officer Ed Barker would also stand down immediately.
