Haworth Creates International Sector

Frank Rexach, Haworth's Vice President and General Manager in the Asia Pacific sector, has announced his decision to retire at the end of June, 2017. With this change, Haworth is creating an International Sector that will be led by Henning Figge, Vice President & General Manager.

“Frank’s leadership has been instrumental in developing Haworth Asia Pacific into a dynamic organisation, allowing us to support our client’s ever-evolving needs,” said Franco Bianchi, Haworth President & CEO. “In his 15 years with Haworth, Frank has led the organization to be an international thought leader in the Asia Pacific office furniture industry and has been personally instrumental in several very successful years of profitable growth. As he made the decision to retire, I thanked Frank for his continued efforts towards achieving our business goals and wish all the best for his personal future.”

As Rexach retires at the end of June 2017, Haworth is creating an International Sector. Both Asia-Pacific and European sectors have gone through significant changes in response to a continuously changing market environment. During strategic planning, Haworth realised alignment between these two sectors, both in terms of product and service needs. This change reflects the increasingly connected and highly knowledgeable customer environment around the globe.

Haworth believes great spaces empower people to thrive and work their best. As a leading global furniture maker, the company partners with customers, dealers and influencers to create spaces that result in effective people and efficient real estate. Haworth’s customer-first approach comes from an entrepreneurial spirit, design-forward thinking and multicultural perspectives. With a heritage in the workplace, Haworth is the founding brand of Haworth Group. The Haworth Group designs at the intersection of people and environments with brands like Haworth, AIS, BuzziSpace, Cappellini, Cassina, Ceccotti Collezioni, Heller, Hushoffice, Interni, JANUS et Cie, Karakter, Luminaire, Luxury Living Group, Poltrona Frau, Tayco, Tuohy and Zanotta.

 

Founded in 1948, Haworth Group is a privately-owned company operating in more than 150 countries through a global network of 400 dealers and 8,000 employees. Headquartered in Holland, Michigan, U.S.A., the company has sales of $2.7 billion USD.
