Artcobell Appoints New Executive Leaders to Guide Next Phase of Growth

Temple, TX, October 2026 - Artcobell is pleased to announce two key appointments: Stephen Fitchett as CEO and Stan Pissarski as Vice President of Operations. These strategic appointments demonstrate Artcobell's long-term commitment to the K-12 market and the brand's continued growth. 

Fitchett’s career has spanned engineering, warehouse operations, manufacturing, product development, and financial and organizational strategy. This complete and rounded expertise makes him ideal to lead Artcobell.

“Artcobell has a strong foundation: a respected brand, talented people, and dealer partners with market-leading expertise,” Fitchett noted. “My job is to build on that. Over the coming months, we’ll focus on strengthening our operations, sharpening our product roadmap, and putting the structures in place that let us grow without losing what makes us good at what we do. Our dealers should feel that difference in every order, from the first conversation to final delivery.”

Additionally, Pissarski’s extensive experience in manufacturing and operations across multiple organizations brings a level of operational and production expertise to Artcobell that provides a high level of differentiation within the furniture manufacturing market.

“I’ve spent more than 20 years in manufacturing operations, and what I’ve learned is that great operations are built by people who are engaged, supported and given room to grow,” he said. “That’s the kind of environment I want to help build here. I see my role as a change agent: coaching our teams, investing in our people and making continuous improvement part of how we work every day.”
