After most recently serving as president at rug producer Loloi since 2023, Scott Eckman is returning to market organizer ANDMORE<\/a> as president, effective April 7. ANDMORE owns and operates the Las Vegas Market, Atlanta Market, portions of the High Point Market as well as Shoppe Object in New York City and at High Point Market. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eckman is a respected industry leader who brings significant cross-functional experience in physical and digital marketplaces across the industries ANDMORE serves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prior to Loloi, Eckman spent more than a decade at ANDMORE, most recently serving as executive vice president and chief revenue officer, where he oversaw permanent showroom and temporary tradeshow leasing across all product categories and campuses. Eckman began his career at Boston Consulting Group and holds an MBA from Harvard Business School.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As President of ANDMORE, Eckman will help lead the company alongside CEO Jon Pertchik, who joined ANDMORE in June 2024. Eckman will oversee a broad range of activities, including sales, leasing and marketing, and partner with Pertchik and the rest of the leadership team to enhance how ANDMORE serves customers and guests. Eckman\u2019s appointment follows Dorothy Belshaw\u2019s transition from ANDMORE president to an ongoing advisory role in February 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cScott is a collaborative leader with deep connections across our industry, and we are thrilled to welcome him back to the ANDMORE team in a bigger and broader capacity to help lead this great company,\u201d Pertchik said. \u201cAs ANDMORE continues to grow and adapt to industry opportunities, Scott\u2019s strong customer relationships and experience leading teams across functions, including sales, leasing, and marketing, combined with his recent experience supporting Loloi\u2019s continued growth, will be an asset to our business and all of our partners. We look forward to benefiting from the bench strength Scott\u2019s valuable insights and perspectives will provide as we continue advancing ANDMORE\u2019s strategic path forward and delivering exceptional experiences for our customers and guests. On behalf of all of us at ANDMORE, I\u2019d like to again thank Dorothy for her contributions during her tenure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eckman stated, \u201cANDMORE is recognized for its industry-leading creative marketplace solutions and customer-centric values, and I am excited to return to the enhanced ANDMORE family in this new role. Working alongside Jon and the rest of the team, I look forward to leveraging my previous industry experience, including the invaluable perspective as a wholesaler and market exhibitor gained during my time at Loloi, to support ANDMORE\u2019s continued innovation and growth as the go-to provider of wholesale market experiences for buyers and sellers. I also want to add my gratitude for my time at Loloi, not only for the unique professional opportunity, but also for the close friendships I developed with so many across the remarkable Loloi team. I have the utmost respect for Amir, Cyrus and Steven, who are world class leaders in their industry.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
