The maker of rip-resistant Sheertex pantyhose has a new leader. SRTX says Sophie Boulanger has become its CEO.

The Montreal-based company says Boulanger is ideal for its top job because she has a track record of scaling brands.

Boulanger co-founded eyewear company BonLook, which was eventually acquired by FYidoctors in 2021.

SRTX hopes she will help the company expand globally and strengthen its wholesale business and private-label partnerships.

Boulanger takes over from Timothy Leyne, who served as interim CEO after Katherine Homuth departed the business.

In the lead-up to her departure, Sheertex temporarily laid off 40 per cent of SRTX’s staff because of the tariff war that had broken out between the U.S. and Canada.
