Zafferano America, a manufacturer of cordless lighting, handmade tableware and colored glassware, has promoted Chris Collins to executive vice president of sales and Neil Fleisher to vice president of sales for the company’s lighting division.
Collins joined Zafferano America in the fall of 2022 to launch the company’s tableware division as the division’s vice president of sales and marketing. Prior to joining Zafferano America, Collins served as president of tabletop company Arte Italica and, before that, as vice president and general manager of 7W New York, a former tabletop and giftware showroom building in New York City.
Fleisher joined Zafferano America in February 2023 as a national sales manager with more than 40 years of experience in the retail/wholesale lighting industry.
“Collins and Fleisher have been vital players on our team, helping to build a sales force that has generated tremendous success in a short time,” said Barrett Gross, president of Zafferano America.
Zafferano America, established in 2019, offers 40 styles of cordless lighting in a wide range of finishes, shapes and sizes. The company also manufactures dinnerware in Italy to complement its lighting designs and colored glassware collections.
