Boulden retiring from Sealy

By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, March 11, 2007

Archdale, N.C. — Al Boulden, senior vice president of sales at Sealy, will retire from the bedding maker effective March 30.

Boulden joined Sealy in 1991 as eastern regional vice president of sales. He moved from Philadelphia to Dallas in 1997, where he led central region sales, and was promoted to his current position in 2001.

"As a senior leader of our U.S. sales team, Al has helped guide and develop numerous Sealy managers and associates during his career," said Larry Rogers, president of Sealy's North America unit. "He has helped grow our domestic bedding business from sales of $543 million the year he joined Sealy to sales of $1.3 billion in 2006."

"I am leaving with extremely positive feelings," said Boulden. "I believe in Sealy's long-term outlook and remain a loyal supporter and shareholder of Sealy. To me, retiring means focusing on other areas of passion, which in my case will be family, church and community."

A successor to Boulden has not been named.
