Violino Ltd., leather and upholstery supplier, has named Carlos Bosch president of North America.
Bosch had been vice president of sales for the company, and he succeeds Chris Stevens in the position. Bosch’s industry experience includes positions with Leather Trend, Natuzzi and Bassett Furniture, where he held a number of sales and management positions.
“Our previous president, Chris Stevens, utilized sound business strategies growing Violino consistently, and we wish him the very best in his new endeavors,” Bosch said. “With the changes in global sourcing and Violino’s ability to react quickly, I am excited about the opportunity for growth that Violino is capable of. With the addition of a few talented hard working people in some key management positions, our customers will quickly see Violino as the best fashion forward, quality, and value driven resource in the market. I am looking forward to working with our new team both here and in China as we approach growth in a more methodical and pragmatic way.”
Violino was founded in 1991 and operates a one-million-square-foot foam factory and a one-million-square-foot manufacturing facility in Shenzhen, China. The company was started by the Yuen Yau family.
“Carlos brings a unique and innovative management style to the leadership of our company and will be instrumental in the success of our continued growth and expansion,” said Hong Yuen Yau, Violino owner.
