NEW YORK, United States — Lululemon's Executive Vice President of Global Retail, Delaney Schweitzer, is leaving the company.

Her resignation from the yoga gear retailer is effective May 29.

Schweitzer said in a written statement on Wednesday that after spending more than a decade at Lululemon she felt that now was the time for her to move on.

Schweitzer started at the Canadian company in 2002. It has more than 300 stores and showrooms worldwide.

Chip Wilson, the founder of Lululemon Athletica Inc., stepped down from the company's board in February. He had resigned as chairman last year after controversy about comments he made about customers' body types.
