NEW YORK -- New York City-based Harounian Rugs International announces the appointment of two sales professionals to the company's national sales force.
Season Irvin will represent HRI in Southern California in the Los Angeles south area. For the past 12 years Irvin has represented products such as fine leather and fabric upholstery, art, and case goods, selling to high-end furniture retailers, interior design firms and to the trade showrooms in her territory. Prior experience includes a position at a Los Angles design firm, where she developed her sense of design, understanding of quality home furnishing and customer service, according to Greg Jordt, HRI's executive vice president, sales and marketing.
Another new sales representative, Mr. Lynn Hoffman, will service a territory that he has covered for 35 years: Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Washington, DC, and Northern Virginia. Hoffman has and continues to rep manufactures of fine high-end textiles to an extensive account base of large design firms and specialty lifestyle stores that are "a perfect match for HRI's quality, design and color leadership," Jordt said.
"Harounian Rugs International continues to expand its sales force, in order to service a growing customer base. After a very strong summer market season, we are very excited to be working with these two new HRI sales professionals going into the High Point Market, which is setting us up to be one of our best Markets eve," Jordt explained.
For over 50 years, HRI,, a privately held family company with showrooms in New York, Atlanta, High Point and Las Vegas, has manufactured and imported programmed hand knotted rugs for mid- to high-end specialty retailers, interior design firms and to-the-trade showrooms.
