OPI Products has announced that John Heffner will be the brand's new president and general manager, joining George Schaeffer, who remains founder and CEO, and Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, who remains EVP and artistic director.

“We’re thrilled to have John join the OPI family, as the nail industry is absolutely booming. OPI has been experiencing double digit growth both domestically and internationally,” explains Schaeffer. “In welcoming John, Suzi and I will be able to increase our focus on growing the brand both from an innovative standpoint and in new markets. We’re not going anywhere; we plan on being at OPI for years to come.”

According to a press release sent out this morning, Heffner will manage day-to-day operations at OPI’s North Hollywood headquarters, working alongside Schaeffer.
