Former ModCloth CEO leaves Walmart

Matt Kaness, who was the chief executive officer of online women’s fashion retailer ModCloth when it was acquired by Walmart Inc. last year, is no longer with the company.

Walmart confirmed Kaness’ departure Friday, saying in a statement he had recently decided to leave to “pursue other opportunities” after dropping the chief executive role last fall.

“We thank Matt for his contributions to ModCloth and wish him all the best in the future,” Walmart spokesman Ravi Jariwala said in a statement.

ModCloth is now led by Chief Executive Officer Antonio Nieves, who was previously chief financial officer at Bonobos. The men’s online clothing company also was acquired last year, and its founder, Andy Dunn, was named senior vice president of Walmart’s digital consumer brands.

Nieves has experience at ModCloth after working as the fashion retailer’s chief financial officer before taking the role at Bonobos in 2016.
