New partner for Austria

As of November 1, Gerhard Knaus will take over sales in Austria for Tom Ripley.

His Salzburg agency Knaus oder Knaus looks after the brands Kiefermann, Distretto12 and Juvia, among others, for upmarket specialist retailers. Tom Ripley stands for timeless, sophisticated knitwear, with overshirts, cardigans, sweaters and polo shirts, for example, which are made in Italian, family-run factories. "We are very much looking forward to working with Gerhard Knaus," says Wolfgang Müller, Managing Director of Tom Ripley and Hajo Moden. "We are very grateful for the successful partnership with the Ernst Hinterberger agency, which has looked after the brand in the Austrian market in recent years."
