Solon, Ohio — Tarkett, a worldwide leader in innovative and sustainable flooring and sports surface solutions, has appointed Winn Everhart to president and CEO of Tarkett North America.
Eric Daliere, previously president and CEO of Tarkett Sports and Tarkett’s flooring division in North America, plans to leave the company. Since Daliere took the reins of Tarkett North America in mid-2020, the turnaround has been well established, and growth has resumed significantly.
In addition to Everhart, Tarkett has welcomed Eddy Schmitt, formerly with Steelcase, to its team as president and CEO of Tarkett Sports.
“I am delighted to welcome Eddy and Winn to our executive management committee,” says Fabrice Barthélemy, CEO of Tarkett. “Both bring extensive experience in successful business management and are joining winning teams in our Sports and North America divisions. Together with their teams, they will build upon the strong foundations established and will contribute to further extend Tarkett’s global leadership. I would like to thank Eric Daliere for his outstanding contribution to Tarkett over the past 15 years.”
Everhart has over 20 years of track record in leading major consumer brands and managing large-scale operations, both in the U.S. and internationally. With extensive experience at The Whirlpool Corporation and The Coca-Cola Company, he has driven growth, innovation and strategic changes across North America, Canada and global markets.
