Columbia Sportswear Company has appointed Christian Buss as Director of investor relations, reporting to the company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Jim Swanson.

"I'm confident that Christian's professional background, intellectual horsepower and focus on financial insights will enhance the success of our investor relations activities.
