American Textile Co., a producer of mattress and pillow protectors, sheets, blankets and other sleep accessories, has named Carlo Morgano to the new position of senior vice president of information technology.
The company said the new post was created in part to support its growing supply chain and rapidly expanding e-commerce business, which has seen nearly 50 percent year-over-year growth.
In the new role, Morgano oversees American Textile Company’s worldwide investment in technology, advancing the company’s information technology strategy to complement its growth. He brings a proven track record of strategic IT leadership, with significant achievements leveraging technology to create business value. Morgano will report to President and CEO Lance Ruttenberg.
“Shipping orders within 24-hours is key for all our retailers, and a critical expectation of the end consumer, and we deliver this business value through innovative technology.” said Morgano. “When we see particular items driving growth, we’re able to scale manufacturing and distribution rapidly.”
Morgano comes to American Textile Company from CIO Ventures, where he consulted with local technology incubators and venture capital firms, in addition to advising start-ups in various industries including cybersecurity, transportation, legal, and social media.
Prior to partnering with the start-up community, Morgano led IT at EQT Corporation and consulted for Fortune 1000 clients at Andersen and Protiviti.
The company’s products are sold under the Sealy, Tempur-Pedic and AllerEase labels. The company credits its AllerEase allergen-barrier bedding for much of the e-commerce increase.
