Tandy Leather Factory has announced the appointment of Johan Hedberg as its new CEO and changes to its board.
Hedberg succeeds Janet Carr as of January 6, 2025, who will remain with the company for the transition through to March.
Hedberg brings more than 30 years of wholesale and retail leadership experience to Tandy, most recently as Chief Sales Officer and President, Americas, of Fiskars Group.
Alongside Hedberg’s appointment to the board of directors, Tandy Leather Factory has also elected John Sullivan to the board from January 6, an investment management specialist, while James Pappas and Carr will leave the board.
Chairman Jeff Gramm said: “We are extremely grateful to Janet Carr for six years of outstanding leadership of Tandy Leather. Under Janet, the company has improved our product quality and found new categories of customers despite some difficult economic headwinds, most notably during the Covid crisis.
“As we prepared to sell our Fort Worth property and move our headquarters, Janet thought that this would be a good time for the company to transition to a new leader. We are very happy to have now identified Johan Hedberg as Tandy’s next CEO. Johan brings an impressive history of team leadership and driving sales, both in the U.S. and internationally. We are thrilled to welcome him to the Tandy team.”
