Target adds to supply chain leadership

From automotive to mass retail, Heath Holtz has been named Target Corp.’s new senior vice president of field operations, overseeing the retailer's supply chain and logistics field network. Holtz comes to Target on March 1 from 14 years at Nissan Motor Corp., where he was most recently senior vice president of manufacturing, supply chain management and purchasing in North America. 

Holtz will report to Arthur Valdez, Target's executive vice president and chief supply chain and logistics officer.

“Target has built an industry-leading supply chain and logistics network that supports our stores as shopping destinations and local fulfillment hubs,” said Valdez. “Heath’s strong track record of leading global teams to elevate operational quality and efficiency make him a valuable addition to Target as we continue evolving our supply chain to meet guest needs.”
