Smith will join Jaymar
By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, September 23, 2001
TORONTO — TORONTO — Linda Smith has been named to a senior sales and marketing position with upholstery maker Jaymar Furniture.
For the past three years, she has been director of member services for the Ontario Furniture Manufacturers Assn. Smith was OFMA's senior staff person following the retirement of George Sinclair as executive vice president earlier this year.
She will join Jaymar Oct. 1, responsible for national accounts and all accounts in southwestern Ontario. She succeeds Kevin Kelly, who has left the company, and will report to Louis Bégin, Jaymar's vice president of marketing.
"Linda brings a lot of upholstery and major account experience to the table," said Guy Patenaude, president of the Terrebone, Quebec-based manufacturer.
Prior to joining OFMA in 1998, Smith held a senior sales and marketing position at La-Z-Boy Canada.
Gerry Cockerill, OFMA president, said the group would name a replacement for Smith shortly.
