Leather and leathergoods retailer Tandy Leather Factory has announced the resignation of Shannon Greene, its chief executive, and Mark Angus, its president.

Announcing the changes, Tandy’s chairman of the board, Jeff Gramm, said: "The board of directors is excited to have such a talented executive as Janet Carr, whose broad retail experience and impressive track record make her the perfect choice to lead Tandy Leather into its 100th year.  I also want to thank former CEO Shannon Greene and former President Mark Angus for their decades-long commitment to Tandy. The company showed tremendous growth during their long tenures, and we want to thank them for all of their hard work to help make Tandy Leather what it is today."
