Mark Bischoff Named VP—Vendor Relations for Starnet

Darien, CT, March 28, 2018-Starnet Worldwide Commercial Flooring announces today that Mark Bischoff is joining the organization in the position of vice president-vendor relations, effective April 1. 

In this position, Bischoff will assume the critical role of managing all activities related to the Starnet Preferred Vendor network including vendor acquisition, contract negotiation, business development and training. 

For the balance of 2018, Bischoff will work closely with Fred Williamson, executive vice president of Starnet, who is retiring at the end of 2018 after 50 years in the industry.

Bischoff assumed increasingly responsible positions within the Johnsonite organization, impacting both the sales and marketing areas. Following the Tarkett acquisition of Johnsonite in 2009, Bischoff was named executive director of strategic partnerships, working closely with Starnet to develop a strong business-building partnership. In 2012, Bischoff ascended to the position of vice president-sales for Tarkett NA overseeing the entire Tarkett resilient business, both commercial and residential. Most recently, Bischoff served as senior vice president of healthcare & senior living for Mohawk Industries.
