Classic German footwear brand Birkenstock is expanding Natural Skin Care into the United States with Louise Caldwell taking the helm as president and general manager of the brand. The Birkenstock Group, who also owns the sister company Birkenstock Cosmetics announced Caldwell’s appointment this morning in a press release.
