Chief Executive Officer

TAG Hardware, founded in 2002, has grown into a globally respected leader in premium closet and whole‑home organizational systems. Inspired by European design principles and recognizing an early market need for beautifully coordinated hardware, TAG brought bespoke, engineered elegance to the North American modular furniture industry. The company specializes in designing, engineering, and manufacturing consumer products through a fully integrated, 100,000‑square‑foot facility in South Surrey - equipped with plastic injection molding machines, a powder‑coating line, dedicated assembly workstations, and a warehouse that supports efficient global delivery of their patented products. Their solutions are frequently showcased in home‑improvement shows and featured in high‑end homes worldwide, reflecting the brand’s reach, credibility, and strong design reputation.

At their core, TAG’s people are designers - supported by engineers who create modular, functional, and aesthetically refined systems that serve real human needs. TAG studies how homeowners use storage spaces across the whole home and develops products that reflect modern sensibility and style. Their Coordinated Hardware Systems solve a longstanding challenge for designers : the lack of unified, matching accessories across applications. Every TAG product is intentionally developed to harmonize with the rest of the line, offering six coordinated metal finishes, fabric accents, and faux‑leather tones that produce a cohesive, luxurious look. This unwavering commitment to design consistency, functionality, and manufacturing precision positions TAG as a global leader in innovation for closets, garages, mudrooms, offices, and more.

With steady growth, expanding product categories, and a strong global network of designers and closet professionals, TAG is entering an exciting phase of evolution. The organization now seeks a visionary CEO who can build on its design‑led legacy while scaling operations, deepening market presence, and championing a culture of continuous innovation. The next leader will harness TAG’s brand equity, in‑house manufacturing capabilities, and growing international footprint to steer the company into its next decade of strategic growth and industry leadership.
