US distributor Eldorado Trading Company has announced it has promoted Antonia Pappas to buyer. Pappas will report to director of purchasing, Jon Vogt, and work with vendors to grow Eldorado’s lingerie business.
A California native, Pappas graduated with a degree in communications from the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs in 1994. Prior to Eldorado, Pappas owned and operated a small boutique and has extensive experience as a buyer, purchasing apparel and promotional products. Additionally, she previously worked at PCNA in product development for both hard and soft goods. Pappas was first hired by Eldorado in 2022 as a sales and marketing coordinator. She was promoted in 2023 to marketing strategist and her move to the purchasing department is a return to her procurement roots.
Jon Vogt commented: “Antonia’s previous buying experience is such an asset to Eldorado. She is a smart, positive, well-rounded individual. I have every confidence she will work to find the very best lingerie products for our customers.”
Pappas added: “This opportunity takes me back to my roots. I truly enjoy creating cohesive collections that engage customers with every new season. I look forward to bringing my personal flair to this role.”
