Fischer Skis U.S. Names New Chief

Fischer Skis U.S. LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of privately-held Fischer Sports GmbH of Austria, named Ryan Leach as its president and CEO. Ryan has most recently worked as the Alpine sales representative for Atomic in the Intermountain/UT territory since 2008, but prior to that he held the same position with Fischer.

“We are very pleased to have Ryan back on board at Fischer Skis U.S.,” said Fischer Sports GmbH Group CEO/President Franz Föttinger. “He knows the history and DNA of our brand very well, and with him we will continue to lift our business to the next level, especially on the Alpine side.”

“This is an opportunity of a lifetime to be able to go back to work with a family-owned ski business,” said Ryan. “I am really looking forward to using my experience in the field to drive sales for Fischer U.S.”

Leach will assume his new responsibilities with Fischer on Nov. 30.
