}}Daniel Lalonde (born 1963)[1] is a Canadian businessperson[1] known for heading brands such as Louis Vuitton, Ralph Lauren, Nespresso[4] and Moët & Chandon. After starting his management career with companies such as Häagen-Dazs and Nespresso,[5] he spent ten years at LVMH as president and CEO of LVMH Watches & Jewelry North America, Louis Vuitton in North America, and Moët & Chandon globally.[6][4][8] After two years as international president of Ralph Lauren, since 2014 he has served as CEO of the French fashion company SMCP.[4]

Early life and education

Daniel Lalonde was born in 1963[2] in Cornwall, Ontario.[3] Lalonde's mother worked as a nurse, while his father was a teacher.[2] Fluent in both English and French,[13] Lalonde spent his youth in Cornwall[3][4] and attended École secondaire catholique La Citadelle[4] with aspirations to become a professional hockey player.[3] He studied mathematics at the University of Waterloo in Waterloo, Ontario,[4][3] earning a Bachelor of Mathematics and graduating with honors.[6] After working in Toronto for a consulting firm,[4] he moved[1] to France to study business administration at the INSEAD Business School.[4] He graduated with a Master of Business Administration[3] in 1991.[5]

Career

Early consulting

Lalonde remained in Paris after graduating from INSEAD, initially working at a management consultancy firm[4][3] and at Rothschilds.[3] He "made a name for himself"[1] as managing director of Häagen-Dazs Europe's retail-store division, where he quickly "developed a network of 130 stores in 12 countries, tripling the business." In the mid-1990s,[3] helped launch Nestle's Nespresso brand in North America,[4] serving as Nespresso North America's president and CEO.[5][6] He also spent five years[3] as Nespresso's global chief operating officer (COO)[4][5] while based in Switzerland. According to The New York Sun, Lalonde is credited with "[raising] annual sales from $25 million in five countries to $360 million in 30 countries," with Nespresso reaching "the no. 1 position in global sales for four straight years" during his tenure.[3]

LVMH

In 2002, he was hired by LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy)[4][3][6] as president and CEO of LVMH Watches & Jewelry[1] in North America,[4][5][3] overseeing brands such as Christian Dior, Chaumet, Zenith, OMAS, and De Beers LV.[3] His first major task at LVMH was to improve lagging sales for the TAG Heuer watch brand;[1] Lalonde focused on "superaffluent" markets,[3] such as the golf community in North America,[1] and redesigned the company's customer service[3] and retail strategies.[1][3] He also recruited celebrities, such as Tiger Woods, Uma Thurman,[4][3] Maria Sharapova, and Brad Pitt to take part in watch campaigns photographed by Patrick Demarchelier, with Woods' recruitment as a brand ambassador reportedly leading to a 30% increase in sales. Under Lalonde, TAG Heuer's sales represented over "50% of the growth in the luxury watch market" in the United States in 2004 and, by 2005, TAG Heuer was rated as the No. 2 luxury watch brand.[3]

Lalonde served as president and CEO of Louis Vuitton North America[55][1][7][4] from 2006[55] to 2010,[55][1] then returned to France to become the global CEO for LVMH brands Moët and Dom Pérignon.[4] In 2010,[8] he became global CEO and president of Moët & Chandon[5][6][8][55] and, in July 2010, was named president and CEO of both Moët & Chandon and Dom Pérignon worldwide.[1]

Ralph Lauren

After ten years at LVMH,[4][5] Lalonde became president of Ralph Lauren International[7][5] in January 2012,[6][55] in what was a newly created position.[9] He announced his departure from Ralph Lauren in December 2013.[10]

SMCP

In May 2014,[7][11][12] he became the president[5] and chief executive officer of SMCP (Sandro - Maje - Claudie Pierlot),[6] an internationally expanding French luxury fashion company [13][14][15] in which he also became an investor.[4] During his first year of leading as SMCP, Lalonde travelled extensively in Asia, the Middle East, the United States, and Europe,[16] with the company posting a 19.2 percent rise in sales for the first half of 2016.[13] Under Lalonde, SMCP went public on the Paris Stock Exchange in October 2017 with a valuation of USD $2.5 billion.[4]

Affiliations

Lalonde serves on the board of INSEAD, his alma mater,[5] and has lectured at institutions such as Harvard Business School and Columbia University.[13]

Personal life

Currently based[13] in Paris with his wife Yvonne[2] and their three children,[13] since the late 1990s Lalonde has traveled between New York, Paris,[4] and Toronto.[2] He has interests in vintage wine and oenology with private cellars in Paris, France.[17]
