Saddle Brook, N.J. —

Ed Vairo has left Nourison, the rug and broadloom supplier, where he was director of marketing since 1999.

Matt Blitz, director of advertising and public relations for Nourison, has assumed the marketing responsibilities of his position. Julie Rosenblum, an account executive at the company, adds responsibility for brand licensing at Nourison, which holds the Liz Claiborne and Calvin Klein licenses for rugs.

Vairo, whose experience spans a range of activities at retail companies as well as high end suppliers in tabletop, home textiles and rugs, intends to maintain his presence in the high end of the home furnishings business and will announce his plans at a future date.
