Puma announced Reiner Seiz, the company's chief supply chain officer, will not extend his current contract. After 23 years at Puma, Seiz will relinquish his duties Jan. 31 to pursue other opportunities. His successor will be announced at a later date.

Seiz has been with Puma since 1989 and became a member of the board of management in 2008.
