Lifestyle to name case goods chief soon
By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, May 7, 2007
High Point — Lifestyle Enterprise officials said they expect to name a new case goods president soon to replace John Wampler, who left the importer to join Amelia Home, a new division of Chinese manufacturer Coe Ltd.
Greg Noe, chief operating officer at Lifestyle, will handle many of Wampler's duties until the replacement is named, according to James Riddle, managing director.
Some of Wampler's product development work will go to Jordan Noe, Greg's son, in the new position of operations manager for case goods. Riddle said Jordan Noe also will be involved in sourcing. The younger Noe, who has been with the company for two years as an account executive, will report to the new president.
In addition, Derrick Ng has been promoted to sales marketing information manager. He has been with Lifestyle for three years, most recently in customer service. He will stay in touch with major accounts and will work in the advertising arena.
