CANTON, Mass., March 23, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) Destination XL Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:DXLG), the largest omni-channel specialty retailer of big and tall men's apparel, today announced that David Levin, 66, President and Chief Executive Officer, has informed the Board of Directors of his plan to retire as President, CEO and Director of Destination XL Group, Inc. by the end of 2018.  The Board has engaged Heidrick & Struggles International, Inc. to lead a search process to identify a successor for Mr. Levin, which is expected to be completed by the end of the current fiscal year. The search will include a review of both external candidates and internal candidates from the Company’s deep bench of senior executives.  Mr. Levin will also be prepared to provide transition support and assist on requested projects following his retirement as CEO.

Levin stated, "It has been an honor to lead this great Company over the last 18 years, and I am extremely proud that we have successfully transformed the Company from a dated brick-and-mortar and catalog business into a fresh and dynamic omni-channel retailer serving XL guys around the world. I want to thank our Board of Directors for supporting me and my management team throughout this transformation and for having the vision to invest in our dream.” 

“I’m so proud of all that our team has accomplished, both at corporate and in the field.   It has truly been an amazing journey and I believe that now is the right time for a new CEO to take the helm, and lead DXLG in its next exciting phase of growth,” Levin further stated.
