About David Weinberg
David Weinberg, Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer, and Director at Skechers U.S.A., has also been a Camp Bow Wow franchisee in North Phoenix, Arizona. In a 2025 franchisee story, Weinberg described his experience opening the camp, noting that the mayor attended the opening and that the camp was sold out for interviews over Easter weekend despite corporate concerns about timing. He characterized the franchise community as "one big family" and said that owners share ideas through group chats and corporate support. In a 2016 appearance on CNBC's *Mad Money*, Weinberg addressed a 31% drop in Skechers' stock following a quarterly earnings report. He attributed the earnings miss to the strong dollar, a personal injury lawsuit settlement, and increased deferred rent expense, and said the company still expected to double its business in five years. In a 2015 appearance, he described Skechers as "a marketing company first" and stated that the brand was growing worldwide across multiple categories and geographies, with China and other international markets representing significant growth opportunities.
