Tim Millen joined Elephant Pharm to revolutionize the wellness industry after 20 years of groundbreaking systems development and management in the women’s fashion world. A renowned leader in the area of chain growth," he started his career with Contempo Casuals, where he oversaw the product development department, created systems that helped them grow from 75 stores to 330. Tim followed his work there with a three-year stint of consulting, working with companies such as Nike, Adidas, Mossimo, Hanna Andersson, and Warnaco. He was lured back to the corporate world as Vice President of Information Technology at Francine Browner, the third-largest apparel manufacturer in Los Angeles, which was subsequently purchased by BCBG. There, he retooled every system available, taking the company from 6 stores to 75 stores. From there, he went to the women’s clothing company, bebe, where he not only helped the company grow from 80 stores to 175, he also created their e-commerce website, the first in the women’s apparel industry, completely from scratch.
Since his arrival at Elephant four years ago, he’s worked tirelessly to make every system runs flawlessly in the present and is set for the future, too: he’s structured our systems so that technology will never stand in the way of our growth. In fact, a retail industry magazine profiled him for his work on Elephant Pharm’s WAN system, a network unheard of for a company of our size, but one that allows us huge cost savings and enhanced customer service. He has also overseen the switch to the Aldata, a world leader in point-of-sale Systems
