Somerset, Ky. — Donald R. Smith has been named president of Ultra Shield, an international supplier of home furnishing protection products and warranty services.

Smith most recently was vice president of Guardian Northeast, a distributor of Guardian Protection Products, for 10 years, covering Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virginia and Maryland. Previously, he was national trainer for retailer Value City in Columbus, Ohio, where he began his career as a store manager. Smith was also affiliated with Simmons Mattress and Bassett Furniture.

"Don has more than 38 years experience in the home furnishings industry," said CEO Randy Wahlman. "Combined with his knowledge of the warranty service business, he'll be able to grow with Ultra Shield in responding to the significant increase in retailer interest in our products and services."

Smith succeeds Wahlman as president of the company, which Wahlman created in 1987.
