Foam mattress and pillow manufacturer Latex International has promoted Mike Tilki to vice president of domestic and international component sales.
He continues to report to the companys vice president of global sales, Jim Siragusa.
Tilki joined Latex International in 1999 as a product marketing manager. As the companys bedding business grew, he transitioned to the sales force, managing multiple East Coast mattress component accounts and developing comprehensive sales trainings sessions. He was promoted to director of sales in 2007 and given responsibility for all national account domestic customers. Most recently he was vice president of sales, North America.
We are pleased with the way Mike has successfully developed our domestic sales over the last several years, said Shelton, Conn.-based Latex International President and Chief Executive Officer David Fisher. Global interest in Talalay Latex is growing at a rapid pace. Putting our global and domestic component business under one umbrella made sense because it allows us to share insights gained from Europe and Asia with our domestic partners.
Tilki received his bachelors of science degree in business administration from the University of Connecticut in 1992. He resides Oxford, Conn., with his wife, Sonja, and daughters Allison and Avery.
