David Alfred Perdue Jr. (born December 10, 1949) is an American diplomat, politician, and businessman serving as the 14th United States ambassador to China since 2025. A member of the Republican Party, Perdue previously served as a United States senator for Georgia from 2015 to 2021. He was an unsuccessful candidate for governor of Georgia in 2022.
After 12 years as a management consultant, Perdue became the senior vice president for Reebok, eventually becoming CEO. He later joined PillowTex, a North Carolina textile company; the company went bankrupt and folded shortly after his departure in 2003. He subsequently became CEO of Dollar General.
Perdue first ran for the U.S. Senate in 2014, defeating Democratic nominee Michelle Nunn, daughter of former U.S. senator Sam Nunn. Perdue ran for reelection in 2020, losing to Democrat Jon Ossoff, a former investigative journalist and filmmaker, in a January 5, 2021, runoff election. After the November 2020 presidential election, Perdue called for the resignation of Georgia's top elections official and claimed that there were unspecified "failures" in the election. Perdue unsuccessfully challenged in the Republican primary incumbent Governor Brian Kemp in the 2022 Georgia gubernatorial election.
On December 5, 2024, President-elect Donald Trump named Perdue as his nominee for United States ambassador to China. On April 29, 2025, the U.S. Senate confirmed Perdue by a vote of 67 to 29, and he presented his credentials on May 16, 2025.
